Do you know the song by THE PROCLAIMERS called '500 MILES' that was released in 1988. The lyrics go like this:
When I wake up...
I know I'm going to be I'm going to be that man who wakes up next to you
When I go out...
I know I'm going to be I'm going to be that man who goes along with you
If I get drunk...
I know I'm going to be I'm going to be that man who gets drunk next you
And if I (?)...
I know I'm going to be I'm going to be that man who's (?) to you
But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be that man who walk a thousand miles to fall down that should do
When I'm walking...
I know I'm going to be that man who's walking hard for you
And the money...
Cause for the work I do I'll pass every penny onto you
When I come home...
I know I'm going to be I'm going to be that man who comes back home to you
And if I go...
I know I'm going to be I'm going to be that man who going over you
But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be that man to walk a thousand miles to fall down that should do
(Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Undela Undela Undela la la)
When I'm lonely...
I know I'm going to be I'm going to be that man who gets lonely without you
And when I'm dreaming...
I know I'm going to Dream I'm going to dream when I'm with you
When I go out...
I know I'm going to be I'm going to be that man who goes along with you
And when I come home...
I know I'm going to be I'm going to be that man who comes back home for you
I'm going to be that man who's coming home for you
But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be that man to walk a thousand to fall down that should do
(Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Undela Undela Undela la la)
And I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be that man to walk a thousand miles to fall down that should do

Twenty-five years ago today:
July 13, 1985
Saturday
When I woke up I should have taken my car in for an oil, filter, and lube job. I forgot. Next Saturday it’s a ‘must do’.
I had breakfast at mom’s house and I took Ashley home with me. I put my cartoon Woody Wood Pecker T-shirt on her for amusement. Then I wore my Chilly Willy T-shirt. She just smiled. She watched me take a poop on the toilet. Ashley laughed.
I telephoned Rachelle, “I just wanted to tell you that I’m going with my mom and Ashley to MACY’s. I want to see a stereo system they have there and buy that Corey Hart album.”
“Okay, Thanks for telling me.”
After the shopping adventure I shared my New York Seltzer Cream Soda with mom and returned home to take a nap.
Dale called with an invitation.
“Do you want to go see MAD MAX BEYOND THUNDERSTORM with me and my forty-one year old friend, Robert, who just moved to Alameda?”
“Sounds good—but I have a haircut appointment in Alamo.”
“Why don’t you just cancel it?”
“No, I don’t want to cancel it.”
I am writing now in Alamo. I just charged twenty-six dollars on some cards at the local Alamo Hallmark store. I walked in to CHEZ NOEL and Danny Garcia looked the same. He cut my hair at no charge.
“It’s no charge but you have to treat me to dinner,” Danny said.
We drove to Walnut Creek first because Danny had to pay some ‘junkies’ from the previous night. We ate lasagna at some nice place in Danville. Then we went out to San Ramon (not far from his apartment). We departed with mutual smiles. He wanted me to stay and go out to another place but I didn’t take him up on that idea. I really don’t want to lead him on at all. I only like him as a friend (period). I don’t know why I just don’t tell him that!
Rachelle opened the door, looked at me and said, “What are you doing here?”
What a nice greeting! I know I should have called her first but I didn’t. It happened that she was getting ready to go out with Heidi to see Rob Lowe’s new movie, ST. ELMO’S FIRE.
Rachelle asked, “Do you want to go with us?”
I was hesitant because I didn’t want to intrude on a girl’s night out, then I said, “Yes.”
Rachelle picked up her phone and had this negative tone when she said to Heidi, “Yes, he’ll go!”
It made me feel very unwanted. So what happened? I felt like NOT going after all but I did go because of her obnoxious persistence.
First, I drove Rachelle to Danee’s house so she could get her spare keys (because she couldn’t find her other set of keys). I ended up following ‘Rachelle and Heidi’ who were in a separate car. We went to South Shore Cinemas and saw THE BREAKFAST CLUB and ST. ELMO’S FIRE. It was a double-feature and both movies were good.
THE BREAKFAST CLUB was more of a high-school type of film but it make a good point: ‘It doesn’t matter what click or group you belong go…we can all get along and really find bits that we have in common.’
ST. ELMO’S FIRE dealt with the aftermath of college life and the realities of not being able to get the beau you really want OR the job OR the millions you really want which ultimately leads to depression, hysteria, jealousy, problems, stress, growing-up, separating from old friends and fading out from the college scene of parties and all of that sort.
It was silly listening to Rachelle and Heidi giggle and make there “Ooh and Ahh” sounds every time that Rob Lowe appeared on-screen. I admit I was a bit jealous but it also made me realize that Rachelle is still sort of in THE BREAKFAST CLUB stage of life. She hasn’t even touched the realms of the ST. ELMO’S FIRE realities. What should I do about her? I love her. I’m really not ready for her immaturities. I hate arguing with her. She needs to seriously change her attitude about things and NOT pick on me.
When I went home I wrote a card/letter to Jim Koran because he wrote to me. I had been planning to write him back. I wrote that I was driving down to Los Angeles next week. I mentioned how I may be going with Dale Orlando (even though I wasn’t sure it was such a good idea). I wrote about the ‘Wheel of Fortune’. I am still not so sure that going to L.A. with Dale is a good idea. I definitely need more space from him. He seems to keep talking about other men and seems to want to fix me up with one and go “that route” again. I don’t really want to—to tell you the truth—not now.
I also wrote Paloma a card/letter.
I wrote George G. Jones a card/letter but I learned that the address I had for him is not good any longer. The card was sent because Rachelle and I had been discussing him. I was beginning to wonder about him, so I thought I’d write to see if I’d get a reply.
I sent Barbara Reynolds a Congratulations card on her new residence. She is moving out from Robert’s house and in with some other guy (?).
I also sent Dale Orlando a “banana” card. Ha-ha. I was supposed to send Danny Garcia a card, too—but I didn’t. I didn’t really want to write anything to make him ponder over me.
I wrote Rachelle a sort of ‘Dear Jane’ card, too. I wrote that I needed my space. As I was writing I seriously felt that we should stay apart for a while. I wonder how she will react.
Then, I slept.
"I don't like tension in my home. I want to resolve this matter."
