I have consolidated my Individual Retirement Accounts. And now on June 29th I shall transfer the accounts to DEAN WITTER. That'll be a relief.

It's a beautiful day. I've decided to go bicycling to Berkeley. I left my house at eleven-thirty this morning and was back home by one-thirty this afternoon. I stopped at Lake Temescal briefly. Then I tried to take a nap on the lawn there but I couldn't rest completely.

I have not heard from Chad at all nor do I expect to. I will probably run into him on Tuesday night at the gym.

I drove out to Karen Craven's pad in Walnut Creek. I arrived at eight o'clock and Ed and John were there. We waited for Amy to arrive. Ed, Karen, Amy and I departed for 'eats' at some Italian joint in Lafayette. It made my stomach upset. The four of us went to the movies to see Mary Tyler Moore's new flick called JUST BETWEEN FRIENDS. It was just 'okay'.

Amy and I talked a lot before we departed. We gave a few kisses to each other as a proper goodnight.
