September 26 - Saturday


Went to beauty parlor and stayed home. Later went to the movies with Mom and Mercy - we saw “The Pink Panther.” It was a riot. Peter Sellers made me laugh so much I cried. We had a snack at Tasa de Oro.



September 27 - Sunday

Went to Mass with Mom and Mercy. Saw Joey. Ate lunch at Alba’s. Spent rest of the day at Mercy’s house - Honey and George were there. I miss Joe.



September 28 - Monday

Am not feeling well again. Went to see Dr. Ocampo. Met George’s mother there.



September 29 - Tuesday

Maribel told Mercy that Joey is dating Dita again. Nothing surprises me any more. Rained buckets this noon. Ate lunch with Dad at Swiss Inn. Did not go back to the office this afternoon. I still don’t know whether to go tomorrow or not. (Cliff at Polo Club).





September 30 - Wednesday

Ate lunch at Mercy’s house. Could not make a dinner date with Cliff at the Polo Club tonight. Am so sorry. Wish I had gone. Cliff is so nice. I bought a new dress.



October 1 - Thursday

I guess I am prompting after all for the new play - “The Silver Whistle” - I have the script. The work is really piling up at the office.



October 3 - Saturday

Small dinner at Mercy’s house. I didn’t have that great a time but I guess its no one’s fault except mine. Jigger was there for a while. Hasn’t changed and is very nice.



October 4 - Sunday

I hate to admit it but that Joe has really gotten under my skin. Saw Joey at Mass. Went to the office a while. Went horseback riding with Joe and Boo at Joe’s house in Forbes. I had a very nice time.

Saw Cliff in the afternoon. Dammit that Joe is still n my mind.
