"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

and stay there.

Right?

He called. He had to turn the wrong direction leaving the store and couldn't get turned around. He finally turned in our old neighborhood. Now he's parked at the Denny's.

He's going to head up to Show Low and see what it looks like there. If satisfactory, he's going to try one route home. It's a bigger highway, but it's worse once he hits side roads. So if it starts looking squirrelly, then he's going to keep on going to the town north of us and stay there overnight.

I am going to freak out like a mammal. That is my plan of action. And maybe launder some sheets.

Sounds like a reasonable plan.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I'd say freaking out like a mammal is a good plan of action. Find a safe place, SO, and stay there! I totally get that impulse to get home, I do. And to want people home. But ACK! stay safe.

Glad to hear about a lot of downloaded books though.

I am out of milk so I need to run to the store today. I wish I'd looked at the calendar and done it yesterday. Instead my lack of planning is going to come with a stupid tax in the way of crowds.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

NYE plans here will depend on weather and what we're feeling up to.(i.e., are we feeling too lazy to drive to Alexandria for First Night?)

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

He's in Show Low. He's calling it. So I called over to the Sleep Inn to book him. They have a few rooms left and are holding one for him.

He's what would normally be about two minutes away, but he's thinking it'll probably be a half hour over there.

I will be much happier when I know he is there. I made him eat at the McDonalds' since he was already in the parking lot and I don't want him making more stops than necessary.

The whole thing is a shame because he ended up with no students making it to lessons and rehearsal canceled for tonight. So he might as well have stayed home with me.

It's just irritating because it's so hard to call what the weather will do out here. Yesterday he canceled a trip to Window Rock that probably would have been fine to participate in a film someone's making about the musician whose family is funding us. I think he was stinging from that unnecessary cancellation so wanted to try going in today. But it turns out he shouldn't have. It's just hard to gauge.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, that just sucks, Liese! I'm glad he'll be OK, though.

I'm glad he's staying put, Liese, but it's too bad he had to go out at all.

Since lunch was a Big Fail, I ended up tossing all of the meat. I'm going to go to Panera on the way home, pick up some soup for tonight and possibly some chicken salad for tomorrow, and then do my laundry and dishes tonight.

I have to come in and work for a few hours tomorrow, but then I can head home, go for a swim along the way, and then get dressed and packed for a small get-together at my friend Tami's. I missed her Christmas party since it was just a week after I came home from the hospital, so I'm looking forward to hanging with her and a few others. I'm staying overnight--I'm hoping she hasn't seen The King's Speech yet so we can see it on Saturday.

So I thought I had tomorrow off, but it turns out I have Monday off, because that's when all our clients have off.

Oops.
