I am staying at the Keno Motel until Thursday
next week. It is across the street from
the Sand Casino. There is a Mel's Diner there.
The cross streets are Arlington and 3rd.
I meet Magic and Hilary at 12pm Friday, at
Mel's Diner and we had lunch! He preferred
a chicken-type lunch, She had salad and
?, I had the Chili Burger. They also shared
a Sundae, and I had a banana shake.
I like Mel's diner for there astomphere and
good prices that match their good food.
We then spent some time there getting adquainted.
Magic is softspoken as he is online, Hilary and
I were talkative. Oh! God! It is amazing how
so!
I am usually constrained in talking in public
except for my odd statements to add cheer
to someone's life. Hilary and I were very
autistic and it was like all the social adjustments
evaporated and my very autistic traits and hers
just flowed.
Magic did the "seconds eye contact test".
I managed 30 seconds and couldn't help
laughing after that! His gaze would have
held longer. So much for eye contact practice.
Hilary wanted to check her email, and validated
why I have a wifi card. We had to doddle at
the main library and time was ticking in a bad
way. No luck there, We went way out of our
way and after much annoyance in my part,
"I do not beg for food, restrooms, and internet"

feelings came to the
surface. The outer branch was small.
The area of this outer library branch reminded
me of Hisperia, a city my dad lived in when
I meet him at age 13 in 1979. It was desert
scant and unhappy looking houses, and desolation.
We later went to a petting zoo in a further
point away from, but still in Reno. It cost
$5 dollars and was literally a 1 acre private
backyard. It had odd birds, all type of
monkeys, some lions and tigers being fed.
and very friendly deer that liked to chew on
Hilary's clothes and came to me to pet.
Magic was enjoying himself, but not saying much.
If you go to this small private zoo, remember
to avoid dropping that could go on your shoe.
At 5pm I parted company with Magic and Hilary.
I went online for 1.5 hours and returned to the
motel room and dropped off my computer.
At 7pm, Magic, Hilary and I were going to
this Baskis-language restraunt that served
7 course meals. $22 per person , +tax and
tip was too steep for us, so we went to
Fitzgeralds for a buffet dinner at $12 a head.
We meet tommorow at 10am at the same
Mels entrance and have breakfast. No major
aritinerary except a museum? a mall? a ?
nothing in rock, mind you!
