Labor Day. Jean Michel called, he wanted some philosophy, he came over and we talked, and he's afraid he's just going to be a flash in the pan. And I told him not to worry, that he wouldn't be. But then I got scared because he's rented out building on Great Jones and what if he is a flash in the pan and doesn't have the money to pay his rent (supplies $35.06, $6)?
     Pia Zadora called and said she was coming down. And they all came -- her husband Riklis, his mother, and some other guy. I'd done twelve portraits of her. And they just liked two and they weren't the ones that I thought were the best. So we have all these portraits left over. But we were lucky, she bought the Dollar Sign. Worked alone till 6:00. Got depressed. It was hot and muggy.

Got up early and had to move fast because I had an early appointment at the office with Pia Zadora, so I was excited.
     She arrived and was so cute. Her husband, Riklis, came and showed pictures. She's so sweet, and I think she's going to be a big star. her skin is beautiful. They've got a new house in California and she liked some paintings.
     Later the office was so busy, it was the day before Fred's birthday and he didn't want anyone to know, but (laughs) Suzie Frankfurt sent a huge balloon and carnations.
