I should really be sleeping.

I miss Cody. I had a really great dream about him last night, that we were floating down Truckee River in a yellow raft and the hot sun was tanning our skin and we drifted in and out of sleep down the quiet waters.

Then I woke up and remembered I was in a strange house with two neurotic dogs and an alarm system that wouldn't stop flashing. I don't know why I agreed to house- and dog-sit for Cody's aunt and uncle. Oh yeah, I needed the $300; not for anything important, I wanted to buy Photoshop CS and ditch Elements. I'm moving up in the world, people.

Dave called me last night around midnight after I posted a bulletin asking people to pray that I make it through the night okay. It was 2:00 am in Nebraska and he called before he went to bed to check up on me and calm my nerves ... Dave can always calm my nerves. Cooper, Lanie, Raf, and Steven: I don't know if you read this, but thank you also for making me feel safe and loved. I have wonderful friends.

I MISS CODY!!! I haven't heard from him in a week -- one whole week. I hope he's having a good time in Europe, but I can't help wondering if he's forgotten about me. I keep telling myself that I'm just being silly, but he said that there are internet cafes everywhere in London and that he'd email me, but it's been a week and I guess he hasn't made it over to one yet. I hope Dr. Reynolds has just been keeping him busy. I really really want him to come home. 10 more days, just 10 more days. I'm going to call the Torrey office again on Monday and ask them why Cody hasn't emailed me yet. Actually, I just want to make sure they're all safe. And that the reason Cody hasn't called is not that they got captured and are being held captive in the Alps, but just that they have so much to see.

Mom and I are driving up to Woodbury tomorrow so I can take a computer literacy exam. They want to make sure I know how to use the internet, Word, and Excel. I tried to explain that I work in a church and I use those things every day, but she said that was one thing she couldn't waive for me. So Mom and I are getting up at 4:30 in the morning to drive two hours to Burbank so I can take a test at 8:00 in the morning. We'd drive up tonight, but the hound and the bichon are afraid of the dark.

Goodnight, dear reader. It's 9:30 and if I go to bed right now, I'll get 7 hours of sleep. Ugh.

Don't worry m'dear - I'm sure they're all very busy. Tay hasn't gotten ahold of me either - and she has her cell phone. That's gotta be hard - but only 10 more days!
