A memoir of Grace “Slick” Joplin

Chapter 7.3 Intruder

Music (outtakes of lyrics)
Hello - It's good to see you coming back again - It's been a long time - Since I sat with you, my friend
So come on by - Stay and talk about it - Drink some wine - I'm really glad you stopped in, brother of mine
We'll sit around talking - Drink some wine - And maybe by the morning everything is fine - Everything is fine
Ease back, brother - Let this clear your mind



I guess for most people this Thursday was just a normal work day, but for me it was one of those rare days where Gregg was home all day, giving me a day off from being a fulltime mother.

I decided to use the day with mother, that I haven’t spend a lot of time with lately. We went to the Ocean to get a drink and have a nice long chat.

While we were at the Ocean bar. Farther went over to David’s café to have a coffee and maybe paint a bit there, after Mom and Dad have become more well of, the paintings Daddy created at the Café was now all sold for charity purpose.

Fortunately, Daddy ran into David at the café, meeting a long-time friend he had not spoken to for a while.

Mother and I had more than enough at the Ocean, starting quite early and we needed to have some food to stay vertical. Mother called Farther asking him if he could make dinner for us. He said yes and also invited David home.

Sadly, David had to leave before the dinner was ready, never the less nice that we all met and talked with him. Hard to say how he felt inside, but on the surface, he seemed to be all right.

Also Oddisan had a great day visiting the Kated house to play with their dog Remo.
Rahan was home with Gregg all day, likely not having the best day of his life, forced to take a bath to get rid of a flea invation.

Steve’s day was a usual school day, taking the bike up to the Ocean metro stop in the morning as usual.
On the way back, practice a little chess before heading home to do his homework. Steve saw Lorenzo Bridge at the station, but he was in a hurry and did not what to play.
