Up at 7:00-Unemployment at 8:15-couldn’t collect because of residual check. Got to Rocket before 9-heard terrible Man McBirney (?) on radio-”voice of Americanism”-I”m playing 1st woman-Anne Christianson 2nd woman, Nora (McCallion) Marlowe 3rd woman. Jackie Josephson the 4th. Don Haggerty + Bryan O’Byrne the two men. We read it a few times + took home a script. Saw Ralph Hanson-dear prop man there + Dick Evans + Len-all from last time. Went to Food Giant + cashed check-Breakfast at Panos restaurant-Price St.-letter from Jimmy suggesting I send contribution to Pillsbury which I’d already thought of doing + shall. I picked up 5 copies of my book + last years Christmas cards for Jane + a sweater + gloves for the shooting + we went back to Burlington-I took a nap-Peter got check for $276.00 just on residuals-still has two jobs to be paid for-not to mention the RCA job. Aftra called + said they had that check for him!!! Ben came at 2 and after much choosing finally selected our cards. Mine is very expensive but very pretty and I’m delighted with it. Nice visit with Ben-after he left we went through a back of 1,000 nickels which arrived in the mail today-found quite a few we needed but not of course the allusive 1950 D or a buffalo worth more than 5 [cents]. Got filthy handed + nearly blind. Showed Jane how to use the relaxacizor. [crossed out writing] My call came for 8:30 tomorrow + I’m supposed to bring other outfits. Peter went up to Price St. to pick them up while Jane + I fixed salad. He came back with corn beef + spinach too. We had a couple of drinks + didn’t eat til 10 o’clock. Dick joined us. Arguments about Walt Disney + other things. Bed at midnight-long discussion about Peter’s agent-work situation-unhappiness, etc. More on my part (the discussion) that his-oh dear.
