May 29, 1992 - Friday - Tracey Anne Bowley

I took a little trip over to Busch Gardens today. It was still
forty minutes until it opened, and I loved walking past all those
people in line, showing my I.D, and walking right in without waiting
for even a second. I headed back to the Flume and sat in the lounge
talking to Andy and Doug for a while. Then I took the new employee
shuttle out to Accounting to pick up my paycheck from January 19th!
that I had never bothered to get. It was almost forty bucks. I rode
Questor and saw the ice show before heading out.

Last night I called Nicole and talked to her for a while. I
asked to help me figure out what to get Jana for her Grad party
tomorrow night. She told me a couple things that she would like, one
being one of those little credit card telephone number organizers, so
I said fine I'd buy her one. She said she didn't want me to buy her
one so I said fine, I wouldn't. Then she comes up with "well then I
want one." So today I ran into Service and bought her a Casio on sale
for $15.95. It was the nicest small one that they had, and that
Circuit City had when I went there afterwards. Tomorrow morning I'll
run into Eckerds and buy her and Jana cards. Nicole said she'd call
me either today or tomorrow, and its already after eight, so I don't
think it'll be tonight.

Yesterday morning I was just ready to head over to Clearwater
when Mrs. Valdez calls from Leto at eight in the morning. She said
that she hated to bother me on my first day off but Cindy and I
needed to come in and fill out an interview for the St. Pete Times. I
also mailed my graduation announcements, one this morning to Tracey.

Tracey... well I'll get to her later. Anyway, I did that and then
went to the beach. On the way about four nice cars and I grouped up
and hauled ass over the Causeway. At one point I looked down and my
needle was buried over 85. I'd never really taken the Mustang over 75
and it ran pretty good. I didn't get there until eleven but the beach
was surprisingly empty. Even when I left at two thirty you could have
gotten a parking space anywhere you wanted. I guess its because only
the Hillsborough Co. seniors are out of school and everybody else was
working. The was a really good looking woman, say 33, that laid out
right by me and I got some damn good views. There was also an
Australian girl in a lime green cloth suit that the waves kept
pulling way down. That was nice. She had a bitchin' figure. I stopped
by to visit father at work on the way home and didn't realize how red
I was until then. I'm getting an AWESOME tan. My goal is to be a
nigger by the time I go to Florida! I talked to Dina, the older lady
that has known us since we were little, for over an hour about me and
my awards and goals, and a lot of other stuff. She's really nice, and
goes fishing a lot with her husband; really active. Then I met
Michelle. She wasn't as good looking as I had hoped, and I don't know
what kind of impression I left on her.

Tracey is my pen pal over in England. We've been writing for a
while. She's a very old thirteen and is gorgeous. All of the guys at
school flipped when they saw her picture. I just realized her
birthday is sometime soon, I think in early June. I remember that
she's a Gemini just like Cathy, but I lost the first letter and don't
know the date. I'll send her something. At Christmas I sent her a big
Velvet bunny that was really cute, and she just sent me a huge red
heart lollipop that said "sweetheart" on it. Nice. She wants to be a
surgeon and loves to travel. I'd love to marry her! and it's been
suggested to me quite often that that's a good route for me to
pursue. Well here is her latest letter:

Dear Dan,

The trip to Spain was fun and tiring, that's why I don't look
thrilled in the picture. A booklet is like a lot of pages of writing
and pictures stapled together with a nice cover on front. I gave in
my option form a few weeks ago, I chose to do P.E, Technology,
Economics, French, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. I had to do
P.S.E. (Personal and Social Education), Maths and English. Do you get
to choose your courses for collage? Have you heard Shakespeare's
Sister's new single - 'Stay' yet? It's number one in Britain at the
moment. I have recently taken up aerobics (every Sunday for one hour)
and Tae Kwon-do (Sundays 1 1/2 hrs and Wednesdays 1 hr). Do you do
any martial arts? Karate? or maybe Judo? Also in case I haven't
mentioned it before, I'm a vegetarian. Are you a vegetarian or a
vegan or anything like that?
Do you watch "Roseanne"? I do, a new serise has just started
over here, and I just love Becky's new haircut. Last Friday in school
assembly we were all told not to ride our bikes on the pavement
(sidewalk) anymore, because "it's against the law," isn't that one
stupist thing in the world? What do they want us to do? Kill
ourselves on the road. Do you have any such stupid laws in your
state? I've just bought myself a new book "Solo" by Jill Mansfield
(as a little treat). Mother's Day is next Sunday, I'll buy my mom
some flowers probably, what are you planning on doing (or have done
by the time this letter arrives). I can't wait until I go to collage
now, my sister's been telling me so much about it, it really sounds
like fun.
Oh well, must go.
Write soon please.

Loads-a-luv
Tracey

P.S. enclosed is a pressie from my holiday to Wells-next-the-sea.
I'll tell you more in my next letter (if you remind me that is)
Thanks! bye-bye.

Cute... Well anyway I'll type in her address too so I'll never lose
that. Tracey Bowley
67 Harcourt Road
Wigston
Leicestershire
Le18 3SB

I'd hate to lose that!!! Well Nicole isn't calling (DAMN IT!!!) and I
guess I'm done for today. I need to buy Tracey a birthday card
tomorrow morning too. I wonder what I should mail her this time.
Hopefully tomorrow will be fun.
