Patty Brown hires me to take Emily to swimming practice. I'm running late. It's 11:50 and we're supposed to be downtown at noon. When we're downtown we go into a building where all the floors are moving sidewalks. I go into the dressing room and it's a total shitshow getting into my suit. When I go out to the beach Emily has some severe burns from the sun. WE have to go to the hospital. After I take her there I can't find her. There are a bunch of hospitals in a small area. Then I hear she's going into labor. I run into Elizabeth Gelman who's a doctor. She says she'll help me find Emily.

I'm being interviewed by a radio station. I was supposed to talk about two movies but I end up talking about three. When I get home, no one was listening to the show. I figured they can listen to a rerun.

I'm in a store on Mack in the Woods. It's a modeling agency. I ask if I can be a hand model. They take a look at my hands and say "no." Then I ask if I can do regular modeling and they say "Okay." 

I can suddenly see without my glasses. I keep feeling for them only they're not on my head.

I was at a friend of the Ohare's cottage. The place was a total wreck inside. Eric was doing the work. I explained to the owners how contractors worked. The start on one job, then move on to the next one and keep working until the people at the first job complain. I told them to give Eric a buzz and call him on it.

I'm working at a small agency. A bunch of clients show up. We're having a funeral for one of their employees and there's a coffin in one of the rooms. We gather for the ceremony and a bunch of us are talking. The there are several plates of cookies and desserts. I load a bunch of them on a plate and I'm going to take them back to my office. One of the cookies is like a big waffle, with icing on it. Someone comes up to me and shames me for taking so many cookies. I put one back. Then take the rest of them into my office and pour them into a drawer.

I'm with Marcy on an island off the coast of England. I have a weekly tv show. The two of us are cracking each other up doing outrageous funny bits.

I walk from St. Pauls to the Hill. Then I walk down Kercheval to Kent Drugs. Max is outside the store picking some stuff off the ground in front of the store.

Colleen Wilberding and I work on a picture book together. We're each going to do about 1/2 the paintings in it. I flip through it and it's obvious which ones are hers. they're absolutely beautiful. But we decide that's the charm of the book.

I'm downriver near Monroe. I'm in the running to be the photographer of one of the MetroParks there. It's night and I start to walk home. I go into a couple party stores and I see they're selling hot dogs. Then I'm thinking of calling my dad and have him come and get me and drive me home. 

Zubes and I ride our bikes down to Kercheval in the park. There's a big music festival there and I see Rick Steiger in the crowd. Then I run into Phillis Hurks and she has two little girls with her. One looks exactly like her. I introduce Zubes to her and we talk about our jobs.

Max is working around the house. I ask him if he needs help painting the trim on the outside of the house. 

I'm at a wake at someone's house and I'm totally naked. Tony Ruda is there. I sneak out the walk home to get dressed ups I'm near Maumee and Fisher Roads and I'm trying to decide whether to take Washington or Lincoln to get to the folk's house on Rivard.
