I woke up early thinking about David and finally got up to send a card off to Mikey with some cash in it. I wish I had done it earlier in the week. I have to go by the bank to deposit the rent money so I’ll hit the PO on the way out of town. I really should get a letter off to Roger and keep prospecting for a lawyer that I can see right away. I guess I’ll get a ham to take to GP and maybe some pineapples and cocoanuts. I want to leave some cash with MM also.

On to my concern- I was talking to Mikey tonight and we were talking about the trip and I said I wondered what time he wanted me to pick him up Saturday. He began this little stuttering bit about having another ride to GP and that he was going on Friday or Sunday. He sounded really confused and I could hear a male voice in the background. And he said I could come down Tuesday. I told him that the main reason I was going to GP was to go with him. And if he had another way down there that I would probably stay in Hermiston. He was away from the phone a bit and then he says no I’m going with you and he sounded upset. Dang. I said so what time should I be in Portland - nine, ten, eleven oclock. He said ten oclock. I said you are riding to GP with me right. And he said yes, yes I got to go. I say don’t be mad at me Mikey I just have to make some plans. He says I am not mad at you but I gotta go - very subdued. Man, that situation drives me nutz. In ten minutes I tried calling back and the phone was turned off. So I am not sure whether Katie, Annie, Bernie, or who is making the trip with us. It seems like nothing is ever smooth around those folks. Well, I will work on things tomorrow. Maybe he will get the spotted rabbit and the cash and that will placate the rascals. It is pretty hard to remain detached from this soap opera drama.

I got phone calls from Nolan and he still concerned about his case of course. But does not see that concerned about the time frame. Also Hody called me and said that he was coming to Oregon in May probably around the 17th or 18th.
