June 9, 2010. My how time flies. School's out in 13 days. Alex graduates from middle school in 12. In 11 days, it will be exactly 5 years since the last time my kids' dad came to see them or me. I remember, because it was the night Benton graduated from high school. Alex and I accidentally ran into him in a hospital waiting room a couple of months later, but there has been nothing since then. 5 years, and I'm still hoping he'll come back. What the hell is the matter with me?
On a lighter note, I started the Harry Potter series again. I will most likely finish the 2nd book before I sleep tonight. Trouble is, we have searched the house up and down and inside out and cannot find the 6th book anywhere. My suspicion is that Benton never returned it when he borrowed it before the 7th book was released, but he swears he doesn't have it. I really need to buy an entirely new set, because, with the exception of the 7th book, they are all in really poor condition. Over the past 10 years, they have been read easily as many times as I have read Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" trilogy (since they were read by 4 different people, and besides I have about 6 different printings of "Lord of the Rings," all of which I have read.) But I really can't afford to buy them all at once, and that's what I want to do. I looked on eBay, but it really would defeat the purpose to buy a used set.
Well, I suppose I should email my care coordinator at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance to find out when my next chemo is. Must be coming up soon, but I haven't had a call or a schedule letter as yet. Guess I'll do that now.
Night.
