We are visiting people with only a very short time to stay; I yell at Frank: "Can't you just spend time with me?" See Jacobs: vague; Sholeses: Ronald explains about Jews in Israel getting worn out standing on their heads. See straw dolls that children made to imitate this. (!)  - I am at a lecture: like a Lenten retreat: I carry a thermos of coffee: share it first with Roxanne K., then with Marissa: she holds out white cup for me to fill; ungrateful.
