November 3rd
10:55 AM
Today hasn't really started out well... I wound up staying up and playing games until 3am, and so I was only able to hop online long enough to tell Jevim that I needed to go back to bed. He didn't seem to mind, and even offered to call me and help put me back to sleep, which I really didn't need, I was still exhausted.
Mom came in and asked me if I wanted to go to Wal-Mart (this was at 6:30 in the morning) and I told her I needed more sleep first. I went back to bed and slept til a little before ten, I guess. Mom was in the bathroom brushing her teeth and so I got up and got ready to go. I went into the dining room after one of the spoons in the holder in there, and I saw Mom on the living room sofa with wet hair, rolling it up. I said "I thought we were going to Wal-Mart?" and she said she thought I'd said no. How "No" and "I need more sleep" sound alike, I really don't know. Anyway... she's got the dryer bonnet on now, so maybe we'll wind up going after all.
Jevim told me yesterday that he'd talked to Emma and she'd told him that things between her and Connie were off. This was news to me (and to Jevim as well, I'd guess), and so I wrote Connie a message asking her what was going on, and she wrote back this morning saying her world was crumbling down around her, but she couldn't talk to me. I wrote back and told her I was there if she needed me. I don't know what else to do. It seems like she has drifted away over the past several months. First she wrote and said she wanted me to come down to visit after she quit her main job, and now she won't even talk to me. *sigh*
As if that wasn't enough, then I got a letter from Dee (a friend up in Minnesota) who said that my last message had gotten all chopped off by her mail reader (it doesn't wrap lines) and so could I resend. I thought I'd made the lines short enough... oh well, just another annoyance. : I resent the message.
2:34pm
Mom and I did go out to Wal-Mart, and KFC for lunch, and the grocery store. It was only about 37oF outside and I got reminded just how much my body hates cold weather. Mom says that it's even colder where Jevim is. *sigh* I hope not... I just resent the message I wrote to him this morning, as I'd typoed on the e-mail address, and once I get caught up in NetScrabble, I'll probably go back to playing Civ II again, like I was before we left. I just don't feel like being responsible today.
