The Beginnings - Part 136: JUST FIDGETING AROUND

THE BEGINNINGS - Part 136:   JUST FIDGETING AROUNDWednesday, November 16, 1983Today went by swiftly.    I made a visible and strategic placement of Paloma’s turquoise bathing suit photograph at my desk for all to see.   I few of my coworkers took notice.   I telephoned Paloma during my lunch hour and we had a very pleasant chat.
“My car window is still broken,” Paloma answered as to one of the reasons she has not come by to Alameda to visit me.
I sure do miss her.   I have no plans for this Friday night.   I don’t feel like going out with Jim after witnessing his sexually explicit actions in that men’s room stall at the gay skating rink last night.   I actually mentioned the incident to him over the phone today.  
He simply chose to shy away from the subject by saying, “Oh, I was just fidgeting around.”

I haven’t received a return phone call from the handsome Rick Clark.   I called him yesterday evening and once during this very evening.   I will make sure that’s my last attempt to reach out to him. 
I only wish that Paloma could see me this Friday night.   I think she’s going to see that Matt Furlong character.   Ask me if I care?   Yes, I do.   I just hope she realizes it.I ate at pop’s tonight.   That was nice.

I also had a lengthy telephone conversation with Paloma tonight about her stewardess career aspirations.   She also mentioned her past experience into the make-up artist industry world while living in Paris.   She confessed about her poor choice of friends ‘at one time’ which led her into a world of drug addiction with heroin.   I was surprised to hear that news.
I believe I cheered her up when I said, “I’m glad you’re here now and away from all of that crap!”
I detected a smile from her via the telephone wires after I uttered those words; however, I did hear her blow a gust of cigarette smoke after I said it.   It’s as if I was talking to Marlene Dietrich.   How chic is that?   The passion and mystery of her excites me.DYNASTY was cool tonight.   It’s time for bed now.   I will call Paloma while under the covers to see how things are with her.   We talk and it is for hours…but it seems like only minutes.
