It's starting to get cold here. The Lodge are going out for a big sushi dinner tomorrow night. Last weekend was our friend Krista's 40th birthday. I am so busy with freelance work I have no time to put my own marketing materials together. Alison and I have been watching TV interviews with John Lennon and Yoko Ono from the '70's. Dick Cavett is a good listener and charming host. Tom Snyder was neither. Sherman Hines has decided he doesn't feel like paying me for the two days I worked for him. Moby Dick is worth starting over from the beginning if you've gotten three quarters of the way through it and put it down for an extended period. A new film version of MB is being made here. David Foster Wallace killed himself over a year ago now. We went to a mediocre lecture about him at the library with our friends Ron and Kristina. On Thursdays we're taking a yoga class from our friend Gillian in her house. Last night I dreamed I was playing Scrabble with Neil Diamond. The night before, I dreamed I was walking around Montreal with Noam Chomsky. Tomorrow we're going to see our friends Meg and KC in their new band at an outdoor show in Polly Cove. Softball playoffs start the next day. I want to call my new business Fin Design. There's a goldfish pond in our backyard. I have to meet a new client now.

WITHOUT PREJUDICE
Suing also doesn't guarantee that you'll get paid. I am also owed 2 weeks pay by Sherman Hines. We went to small Claims Court - and get this - he came out with a Judgement against me instead! How does that work? I no longer trust our legal system. He sued on grounds of Breach of Contract. We didn't have a contract, and I was his employee, not contractor. Because of him, I have not been able to work since being employed by him.
