(Andy's) February 22, Friday

Brad, Bob and me went over to Dave Avery's earlier on tonight, for some splifs and some hot knives. I split up to Fairview where I met Bennie and Julie. Bernie was there. We fucked around of a bit, then we got Murry to take Brian Sage, Cliff, me, Bennie and Julie over to his basement in Brian's car. We had to ditch Patty and Wendy, then Bernie + Dave Wells came back-they missed their bus. Well, too bad, they left anyway.

 

We smoked at Elm park chalet first. It was pouring rain outside.

Bennie was fucking cold as stone at Murry's-she just played pool and generally ignored yours truly-until Brian drove her home. "Call me tomorrow" and a nice kiss-she should have patted me on the head.

Ate at A+W with Murry + Cliff.

 

Then I went home.

(Andy's) February 23, Saturday

Brad and Bob called on me + smoked me up-very good of them. Then I headed up to the drop-in.

Bennie was there and she was really fucking upset because Julie might be moving. However, she got into a good mood later on and was pretty good for awhile, then she got pissed and spent her time falling down and laughing at Murry-it was pretty funny. I guess......

 

On the way home she was walking all over the road instead of hanging on to me (like she should have done in her condition) and slipped on some ice. Her ankle had twisted a bit and probably hurt quite alot. Oh well-now she sure as hell hung on.

 

Alot of people were at the Drop-in. Dave Hughes, Tim Heron, Rob Fenouhlet, Danny, Pat + Heather + Sue +co. Brain Sage, Scott and Murry had 36 beers between them. Robbie Griffen showed up with some juicer friends but they saw what kind of scene it was so they split.

 

February 25 Monday

Went to the 'Yes' concert at the Forum with Dave, Michelle, Maggie, Sue and Ralph [who took pictures at the bus stop, on the bus, Alexis Nihon and at the concert. An ok concert if a bit dull in parts (they played all their latest album (Tour Program image)). The sets were designed by Roger Dean].(and now Andy's...need I say more?)
