Tuesday January 23rd 1979
David over to Reese’s for bread and milk and Warren gave him his sausage recipe. Had some for breakfast. In to Molly’s for a permanent. $25. Back out at 12 and got lunch. Looked at David’s books on Vielhauer. Doing better now. But still can’t tell him anything. He didn’t even know that a sole proprietor pays a larger percent for Social Security than you pay as an employee! If he would only take advantage of what I’ve learned and would so gladly share. They left about 3 and stopped at Bonded for $10 gas on my card, at my insistence. I bought $20 meat that he brought up and gave him $35 for his birthday. Why do I have the feeling he wouldn’t come up except for what he gets out of me? He never shows any physical affection for me anymore. But I feel that Karen puts me down all the time and it is bound to affect his feeling for me.
In to the shop and it was Bedlam under Dave’s supervision. Clara Gillam in working on filing thank goodness! Work on editing until 2:15 am.
