April 22-28
April 23
1965 I went babysitting again at O'Rourkes. Daylight saving time has started. (It's really tomorrow) so it's 3:45 EDT and 2:45 EST. ANYWAY I got $5. Not bad. I read my book and worked on some puzzles. I watched Jackie Gleason, Gilligan, Secret Agent. Gunsmoke, News and Johnny Carson. There were no good movies so I just sat around.

1965 Back to school tomorrow! That's all I need to ruin my vacation. I didn't go to church but I did my share of work. Freddie and the Dreamers were on Ed Sullivan tonight. What a bunch of nuts! Especially Freddie -- He's about 30 years old and fools around like a clown!

1965 Not bad for the first day back. We didn't do much in school. Mostly we started new chapters.

1965 Ach! We had 2 substitutes - in History, Mrs. K in Spanish, Miss Tweetybird Oh, all we did was have study halls in those two classes and biology and English. Urg!
April 27
1965 More of the same. This is getting boring! Is there no escape (No!) Only 2 more days this week. Aaaaaah! Then I can relax.
"Fink!" Our vocabularies were so clean back then, at least before college.
