stephanie is: 
tired…
so tonight i am going to my dad’s house to stay the night. he is already at the hospital, but that way i will be in columbia, md so that i can ride in to the hospital with him and his wife. he is giving me a wakeup call at 4 am. sweet jeebus! i’ve grown accustomed to waking at 7:30am after 5 hours of sleep, but… merf.
i packed 3-4 days worth of clothes but i do not know how long i’ll be staying. tomorrow afternoon when my dad gets out of recovery i will see when he will be discharged and if he thinks he’ll need me to be at his place saturday to help him out. if not i’ll go home and be on call should he need me later.
i packed my craptop and it will run a cam or two while i am there. he set up an account on his swanky fast mac so i’ll use that for mail and whatnot. if you see me on aim (as punquin) feel free to say hello – i am not bothering to copy down all your usernames so you have to contact me first.
i am waiting for danny to take care of a work thing then we will hit the road. i want to stop at a craft store or walmart (lame as it is) for some yarn for a very small portable project for tomorrow’s marathon hospital wait. then we will have dinner somewhere with some of the meal money my dad so kindly sent my brother and i.
don’t know when i’ll get to dad’s house – could be as late as 10. i anticipate sleeping very little tonight. i sleep bad without my bed and i have been very on edge. not surprising since my dad is having BRAIN SURGERY tomorrow.
i have a kitty on my lap telling me to pet him. he will be missed even if i am only gone a day. i’d bring him with me but he’d be sad to be alone tomorrow. he is a good kitty and would be sweet to everyone. i sall leave him to guard the house, hehe.
time to go see if i’ve forgotten anything vital.
