Up at 8:30am.  Darrin came by around 8:50am.  Got Pop-Tart, milk, Immortal rules and left.  Went to Handee Mart.  Darrin got gas.  Spilled milk. Left.  Read rules all day.  Stopped in Okawville at Dairy Queen.  I had sore stomach.  Darrin got ham & cheese omelet, toast, bacon, Pepsi.  Went to Nashville (Humphrey's Photography) around 10am for Darrin's senior pictures.  I sat and read.  Family came in.  Left around 11:30am.  Went to St Louis.  To Union Station.  To St Louis Centre.  I got McDonald's, Darrin got Taco Bell (Mexicans).  Went to 10th floor, no higher.  Darrin talked to fat lady, not me.  Darrin got new rocket and 6 engines.  Went to East St Louis, back to Forest Park.  Science Center, closed at 5pm.  Zoo closed, Art Museum closed, etc.  Came home.  Darrin ate at Hardees in Belleville.  Drove around, came home.  Went thru New Athens, back by Baldwin, and home.  Jeremy already left (with mom) to Judo.  Got my rockets.  Went to Darrin's around 7pm.  Worked till 11pm on rockets.  He wanted me to spend the night, but didn't.  Came home around 11pm.  Got first "Countdown" today.  At St Louis Centre, went to Sharper Image, played with picture phones, electric synthesizer, electric saxophone, running machine, headset walkie-talkies and more.  Fun day.  Mom drove.  Jimmy got fish (mounted).  I'm almost done with Nebulon Warrior.  Excited about school tomorrow.  Guess I've written enough.  Darrin got 6-leg spider for his windshield.

We quit our Calculus II class early enough to get our money back.  I took the money and ran.  Jeremy took that money enrolled in a Judo class.

My first "Countdown" refered to a magazine about the Space Shuttle program.
