I don't know what happened a year ago, but by now even a numbskull like me has worked out that you've cut off all contact. It's for you to decide who you hang around with, and I don't mean to nag. I just want to tell you that I still think of you as my friend, that I miss your company and would love to have a cup of coffee with you--if you felt like it.

It was an okay day at the ‘Okay Corral’…I guess. I spent my two breaks with Margaret. I went ‘on my own’ at lunchtime. Dale clearly carries resentment over Margaret. I believe it’s because I have been with her a lot. He probably believes she is the cause of our demise. However, it’s all of my own volition. It was Helen Wong and Ron Shelly who are the key influential ones (for my feelings against Dale). I won’t mention that my mom is also a key influence as well.
After work I followed Margaret to the Avenues of San Francisco. I had dinner at a place called Alejandro’s with my Section. It appears that Dale and Cindy are becoming very ‘buddy-buddy’. It looks so phony to see them as pals. It’s making Margaret sick to see it. It kind of makes me laugh. They’re both the right size for each other anyway.
I took Al Martinez’s advice and ordered the paella, a most wonderful Spanish dish. It was good. I had a lot left over to take home. We were all stuffed. I figured-out tonight that Carl Brooks, Margaret Lai and Earl Kirk are probably my favorite section coworkers. Then again, I wonder what they say behind my back.
Steph was giving me these under-the-table undertone signals of how Dean doesn’t face his problems. She mentioned AVOIDANCE to me once before. Although I am not avoiding (as she may well think that I am). Dale and I have run into ‘shit’ like this before. It’s not the first time. All Dale needs to do is turn back the pages of his mind and it will all add up.
After the dinner I headed straight home to Alameda. I attempted some aerobics exercises but I never finished the Intermediate session. I hit the hay…
