Day 26 (November 21)

sunday, bloody, sunday.  sabbath, bloody, sabbath.  Optimistically, my final Sunday in custody.  Time moves forward slowly towards my appearance in court where I hope to be able to make the judge see what a nice guy I really am and win my freedom.

Can’t say that I got a whole lot done today.  Of course I didn’t have a whole lot to do anyway so every things ok.

I did a lot of crossword puzzles (Moe had a book of them hidden in his nest).  I might be getting addicted to these things.

I went to the AA meeting tonight.  It was getting pretty dull and then the guard came in and told me that I had a visitor.  Wayne came out to see me.  (Jodi was also in the visitors room talking to George).  So Wayne stayed about an hour and talked to me.  We made plans to meet at Grabba Jabba (we think that the Grabba Jabba girls must be missing us badly) on Wednesday after court, that is, after I get released.  Freedom (although still limited). Wayne’s a good lad and I’m glad he came out.  We’re hoping to go to Europe together if we can somehow get the money together.  That would be mucho fun indeed.

Alls well in our unit here.  All the guys are in good humor.  We make a good group:  Andre, Doug, Moe and I.  If nothing else I’ve met some interesting people in here.  I’ll probably miss these fellas when I leave this place.
