First real day of school.  Temp has been cool!  Lately 75-80 degrees!  Almost jacket weather!  Get up at 7am now.  Tim rode bike.  Jeremy took Harry and me in his truck.  Homeroom.  I like 1st hour.  English IV a little crowded.  Plenty o' work.  Jeremy's keeping a journal now.  Spanish was fun.  Harry, Darrin and I in there.  Laughed all hour.  Then physics.  Easy math.  Lunch (chili dog).  Saw Kari (new freshman).  5th study hall.  Did homework in library with Darrin.  Then PE.  74 jr high, 22 sr high.  Jeremy took DeAnn home, Harry, then me.  Aaron came by.  Found dog.  I borrowed Jeremy's typewriter.  Little John's.  Went to Jeremy's.  Played D&D till 6pm.  Aaron took me home.  Ate McDonald's.  Mom to DuQuoin to see Beach Boys.  Can't go to concert on 3rd.  Darrin came by around 8pm.  Drove to Jeremy's.  Making new characters. Rode around.  To River, Baldwin, Sparta, Dairy Queen drive-thru (saw Rob, got medium cone), home at 9:30pm.  Tired.

  1. Strange thing. I ran across this blog, and what jumped out at me was the line about 3/4 way down: "Mom to DuQuoin to see Beach Boys." I was six years old at the time, and I went to see the beach boys on that very night in Du Quoin in 1988. That was my first concert. Pretty cool.

    1. That's pretty cool. I'll have to ask Mom if she remembers seeing you there, haha. I saw the Beach Boys around 1988-89 at Six Flags. They were riding the "Kokomo" wave.
