Friends
Friends are great. I’m going to miss mine this summer. Over the past week or so I took a bunch of goofy digital pictures with my friends, and went down to CVS today and got about fourteen of them printed. They will go up on the walls in my room at Alex & Rachel’s place. Some of my friends went down to Sawyer Point (on the Ohio River) to hang out with me last night; others have helped me clean, pack and move; others have taken time to talk to me on the phone, even though they are too far away to help in any other way. May it be credited unto them as righteousness, may their place in heaven be assured, and may Graeter’s coupons follow them wherever they go! They have saved my sanity over the past two days. Tonight my indigestion is back and I broke out into hives; really random and itchy. So even though I’m pretty calm to all outward appearances, I know that the stress is getting to me.
Posting forecast: Scattered access until Monday. My computer will probably be permanently shut down sometime tomorrow, so posting will be spotty to non-existant until Sunday or Monday, when I am settled in at Naperville. By which time I will be homesick, so I will certainly post. 
A lundi, then!
