December 22 Friday

Chem-about 15 minutes of class then nothing, talked to Andy at the back. B(spare)-met Mike and Ralph, Ralph was with Chris in A block. Had a smoke at the side, Andy at times. Art-Ralph came, finished 'FUCK' mag. History-got out at 11:10 after I finished a test, sat in the student's lounge with Lesley, Sandi, Ralph, Mike and Linda. Got some weed (2 joints). Lunch-same, tried to get a cardboard frisbee away from some kids. Got out at 12:25 to go home. [Today was the last day of school until Jan 3, 1973. "A" [block] went to the library to drop off a Rolling Stone I'd picked up on Wednesday. I met Chris Todd in the Great Hall and talked for a while. Then he went to his locker and I brought the M+S [Man and Society] scrapbook [?] to Buchanan in 221. Then I went into NAL for about 10 minutes. Machin was opening an oyster with a pearl inside [an Xmas gift?]. Chris came to the class while Machin was out washing her hands + we left. [Marginal note: "Dave was downtown with Christine.] Walked around for a while, then went outside + met Ruth + Janet Donaldson outside by the pool. I had to roll a splif for her + we smoked it. Went inside to the auditorium where I found a pack of cigarettes with only 5 missing on the steps. Chris + I met Mike + he gave me another can of Flesh. Chris left + Mike + I went to meet Alan. We went outside for a cigarette. I got buried in snow [?]. Went inside, had a coke + sat down by the coke machine [across the Great Hall from the lounge]. In "C" block went to Alan's + Mike's Art class- FUCK magazine- dome made from straws. In "D" block we went to Hist. and wrote test on Russian Rev ([I got] 19/20). After the test we sat in the lounge, out for another cigarette, and back into the lounge. I went home at around 12:30...] nite-Andy, Dave and Ralph came over, sat in the basement. Some weed, got tired. Andy and Ralph watched TV from 10:40 to 11. They left at 11:30. [Dave called from downtown, Alan called to see if I was coming over tonite...Called Andy to see if he was coming. Andy's brother [Peter] picked me up at 7:30. Dave Avery, Mike Hampson were in the back. So we had 5 people in the Mini. Smoked a j. Got to Alan's. Dave was already there but he had fallen asleep. He had ordered a pizza and it didn't come till 8pm. Andy and I had small pieces of it. During the night we smoked two more [joints]. Alan and Dave started to bother me [how?] and Andy + I went out [to the front of the basement] + watched 40 minutes of The FBI. When I came back Alan + Dave were both sleeping [or pretending to]. Alan started talking about how boring it was getting and suggested that we all go up to George London's sometime during the holidays [which was rather like calling one's own bluff] [I'm even more embarrassed]. Dave, Andy + I got picked up at 11:30.

 

December 23 Saturday

[After a lot of telephoning back and forth it was decided that Dave wasn't coming out today and we were going to Lesley's. I walked to Alan's, his father was just leaving. We sat in the living room until Lesley got there at 1:30. At 1:50 we went out on the path [which connected Winston Circle with Lakeview] and Mr Wiseman picked us up [no, I have no idea what was going on here either]]. Ralph and I went to Lesley's, sat in the livingroom. Judy there. [Lesley opened up one of the cans of Flesh she bought. Agnes, a friend of Mrs Wiseman's, was there and bitchy]. A guy Peter came, who was almost deaf. [Most of the afternoon was spent trying to find out if he's really deaf [that's entertainment!] and it turns out he can make out some things, like loud music etc. [this makes our source of amusement sound rather like scientific curiosity; in fact, we were saying rude and shocking things behind his back to see if he would respond] (Oh my God)]. About 5 went downstairs. Ralph went home. [Called Andy to see if he wanted to go. Andy came over at 7:30. I finished my hamburger and we left at at around 7:40. Went to the Civic Centre- Andy wanted some dope. Couldn't find any. We got to Chris' street but couldn't find #98 at first. We did eventually]. About 7 we started to go to Lesley's friend Chris's house (not Todd). Judy, Peter and Lesley went to Valois for beer, so I went to Chris's [in northeast Pointe Claire]. Bob Holmes, Debbie (Dec 9), her sister and a guy Bob there and a girl (Pat) [not Ford]. Andy and Ralph came. Lesley and Co. came. [Bob gave us (me + Andy) a quart each. I finished about half-3/4 of it, Andy had the rest [I, for one, was definitely unaccustomed to drinking beer]. Even Alan drank about 1 pint or more]. I drank one and a half beers (pints) (oh-gee!). [Just about everyone was fairly drunk except Peter + Judy who were together all night [huddled half out of sight in some corner]. A sink in the back was used as a can and Lesley threw up in it. Alan came back there with a lighter and it looked disgusting [ogling puke- another new source of entertainment]. I borrowed a Jethro Tull bootleg album [which I still have]]. Got a ride with Ralph at 11:30 [I remember talking with Ralph and Andy on the street outside the house after]. We left at 11:30. Alan, Andy + I waited on the corner till my father came].
