Day Five, July 3, 1992 Denton, Texas

Today we slept in late. then we got up and waited for someone to decide what to do. Around 5:00 we went grocery shopping and I bought a cool book on American Indian Myths and Legends [I bought this book looking specifically for a legend of the creation of the dog. The story I heard on televsion was that some Native American cultures believed that the creator gathered all of the animals and then a chasm appeared that seperated man from all of the animals. But at the last instant the dog jumped the chasm and took his place by man.] In the grocery store Rich kept wanting to buy things for the woods that were totally and completely impractical.

We had spaghetti for dinner. It was good and had turkey in it instead of beef. At about 10:00 we headed down to the West End. It's kind of like a party every weekend. Bands in the streets and tons of police. The Marketplace, a shopping center not unlike Underground, had some cool shops. The Autograph Store had a wonderful Unforgettable Fire photo for $399.00 or you could purchase the Davy Crockett for $63,000.00. Paula Abdul's she signed on her breasts. There was a William Shatner, a beautiful Winona [Ryder], and an incredible Jim Henson.

After the Marketplace, we went to find the Main Bar in a place not unlike Buckhead. We drove around for at least an hour looking for a parking space. Finally we got one and made it to the bar for Ten Hands. They had three songs that I liked. They were very loud. There was, however, an incredibe young woman that I believe may have been my cosmic other. Tonight we chanced upon each other, but we didn't meet.

On the way home we stopped on Harry Hines Boulevard. There we saw a billboard for the Satin and Silk Modeling Studio located on [wait for it] Harry Hines Boulevard, Fragrance World, and Janitor's World. Then I fell asleep. Oh, we also saw Dealy Plaza. I never knew it was so hilly. I always thought it was flat.
