The Symphony

In 1877, Tchaikovsky thought marriage to a woman would shield him from a homosexual sex scandal.

Friday

I had a two-hour lunch with Margaret Lai on this Good Friday. We went to Union Square. I bought my niece, Ashley, a giant Easter basket with a drum inside it.

After work out E-Team met at the Fog City Diner Restaurant and had a good dinner. I rushed home to change clothes afterward. I waited patiently for Amy to arrive.

Amy and I went to the Symphony in San Francisco. I like how my mind wanders when I listen to instrumental music. After the concert we went over to the Hard Rock Café.

I drove over the Oakland-Bay Bridge and we went to Jack London Square, stopping in at Gallagher’s where my brother, John, happened to be bartending. John treated us to a couple of drinks. We went home and slept ‘is all’.
