Richard William Weiland Papers

Really wanted to go to baths or someplace but suppressed the urge. Got up at 8:00 had breakfast, left. Heard my favorite DJ on the way out. Maxine.

Thought about random things on the way. Nothing too new. Arrived in Los Angeles Sat 7/2 about 6:30. Exercised till 8. Chip & I went to see sunset - already set. So we went to my Holiday Inn & unpacked. Got showered. Went to give back car of Chips. Then up to LA. Ate at Theodore's. Then to Studio 1. Back around 2. Up at 10.

Then shower, breakfast, and go to Disneyland Sunday July 3. Had a good day, though the lines were pretty long, we saw a lot. Chip had a good time. I lost $40 bucks somehow. It was just lying out or maybe fell out of my pockets. My final feeling was I hope someone gets it who needs it. It reminded me though to charge RM 15 cents/mile not just gas.

Came home from there about

They dealt more with techniques than with technical details. READING CHAP 12 [yellow highlight] was one of the most informative letting me know what's important to success in animation. As I stated in "Strategy for the Second Half of 89". Its a very similar situation to what I felt in trying to be musically expressive. [yellow highlight] 5:00 Go to Irvine for frozen yogurt. Irvine seems so long ago, and so primative to what I am now. Ugh. Back to Red Lion. Finish chap 12, and write up this afternoon. 6:30 Relax. Call Schuab recording DOW+ 186. Change to eans + flannel shirt. Realize I'm tired of reading technical books [yellow highlight] and if I do any more such stuff, it should be in the form of a tutoria, ala Prolog. [black ink] KEY As when I finished Algorithmic Image a year ago, I sense a lack of desire to do Animation Work, just because it uses a computer is no reason to work on it. I wouldn't be interested in animation otherwise. [yellow highlight][boxed in red ink] 7:00 Out to dinner at Wendys. Look for movie, but end up just driving around a lot. Got Gas. So I saw all of O.C.'s memories the ones I used to live in, not just Laguna Beach.Decide not to go see Glen Cram. Not that good a friend- jealousy. Uncomfortable around him, looks, clothes + pradishness +haircut + zits (my). It's not something I want [underline] to do. At Studio 1: "Come down + we can comiserate together" about not having boyfriends. "Come down + help no plant palm trees". Not much interest in talking with me. Awkward the last time. 9:00 Watch news + some "Singing in rain". 9:30 Relax 10:00 Read Chap 14 of "Animation" Future. Shower. 11:00 This trip to OC I have spent weekdays [underline] (nonholiday) for first time in the last six years. It's pleasant, but a little too [underline] quiet. No gay gyms. It was [underline] appropriate in 80 + 81. But not anymore. [yellow highlight] And Glen lives here now. Also now that, I've done app interface for Works, I won't program [underline] anything more like it.
