August - 1979

August 5, 1979

I don’t know if I’ll ever write again because I don’t feel I really need to anymore. Since the big “upset” with Russell, I’ve been dating Tracy Delk. At first I was worried that he was just a rebound, but I’m wrong. Our first date was June 30. He really cares & in a way loves me.

(That’s always been hard for me to admit). He knows everything about me except that I’m epileptic and that awful junk about Russell. I told him that Russell tried something but not that he succeeded. I’ve never just looked at a guy & gotten chills except with Tracy. He’s a doll! I think I love him!

THANK YOU!

I deeply care for Tracy!

Well, I’m writing again! As always, I’ll tell you how my love life is going. Tracy & I are still dating, but not as steadily as before. I’ve been dating other guys (Tracy doesn’t know yet) & having a good time. Russell has called a couple of times, but I am much more crazy over Tracy. Russell & I are just friends.

I love Richland!! I have made some great friends. Especially Vera Lyons & Sherri Carpenter. Also a girl, Jan Robertson. Biology is my hardest subject. I don’t like it. English is fun! (Jim Kerr)

Pat Hogan called, & we went out. We saw Life of Brian (Monty Python) It was hilarious! The best movie I’ve seen in ages (since Goodbye Girl) was A Little Romance starring Laurence Olivier. EXCELLENT!

This Saturday I’m going to 6 Flags with Dee Ann, Russell, Alex and 2 of Dee Ann’s dorm friends.

Friday is Homecoming!

I especially can’t wait to see Bill Holloman, Gordon Sorrells, Ms. Pierce and bunches of others.

CAN’t WAIT!

P.S. Margaret Therese is 4 months old now, & a doll! By Xmas, she’ll be 6 months old.
