Sad slinky

khristle and Molly are in Mount Vernon tonight, staying with my Mom so she doesn't freak-out about being all alone while my Dad is in the hospital (new hip) overnight for a few days.

The apartment feels so empty :(

And it costs 1/2 of a tank of gas to make the round-trip voyage tot heir house from ours and back. So commuting this week is kinda out of the question.

So I am occupying myself with other persuits! Stuff that will be easier to do with the girls out of the house! Stuff like:

• Meet up with squirleywrath some day after school so we can get some measurements for her costume!
• Sort and list all those Batman comics I got from freakachu1979 on Ebay!
• Arrange the bedroom so I can set up my CPAP machine!
• Uhm... watch some TV?
• Flip through the 5-billion pictures and videof of my wife and child, crying like a baby because I'm so lonely
• Hours upon hours of fetal-time with my good friends Ben & Jerry

What time do you work tomorrow? We're supposed to pick Britt up in Marysville, but possibly we can work something out where you get her and bring her here and we give you gas money? That way you could visit them!

He gets off work tonight at 2:00 AM and then has to be back at work at 5:30 PM. Do you think Vern would drop Britt off here at Jim and Cheryl's? If he does it early enough she could visit Jim in the hospital. I'm sure he would be thrilled to seee Esmeraldie.

Oh, darnit - the earliest he could drop her off would be like 6pm - he has to work. :(

Bummer :(

That would be cool! I have to be at werk by 5:30, so it'll make things awfully tight... what time would I be picking her up?

you know when i first read your list i thought it said you were going to set up a CRAP machine... I had a brief moment of imagining some machine shooting out comics and action figures randomly into the bed while you slept...

I would gladly pay good hard-earned American money for such a device!

you would probably have to stock it with your own stuff, but it would be nice if you didn't

We are missing you too Schmoopie. I showed Molly the picture of you that you e-mailed me and she said "hiiiii"! She LOVES you :) And so do I. I've been thinking. If Butch and Heidi are coming up Friday and staying the weekend, then they'll be here to help out and maybe I could come home. We could come back up on Monday to hang out with Jan.

That sounds WONDERFUL!

I love you! I miss you already! I need to do stuff to distract myself!

Why didn't you say something dude, we could have hung out after work or done something. Well if you want to just say so. Not like my schedule is booked up or anything after work.
