Apr. 24th, 2004 02:58 pmMelynda, Alan and I went shopping this morning. Melynda needed new clothes, and we were along for the lunch. Well, I bought underwear. I needed them though. Lots of good food and conversation at La Madeline's with Tyler, who graciously drove me home. My jaw started throbbing with the effort of eating.
Two aleve and a leaky ice pack later, it's manageable. But alas, if I'm on the painkillers I don't think I can drink tonight.
An early morning phone call from a friend made me realize the wisdom in not buying plane tickets recently. She's far away, and it kills me that I can't be there to help right now. But in the summer I will fly up and help her drive home to Texas, back to the trees and the Little House and the wide open skies. Not to mention the Sonics, jalapenos in the grocery store, Tex-Mex, Dairy Queens, deer, highways full of pickup trucks and Pace.
