9:17 Monday Morning   An Unexpected E-mail I got an e-mail from Mandy today. She had a good christmas. I miss Mandy. I sort of ish want to go home. But I don't want to leave Caleb... I like that boy too much. He came over last night around 8:30 and stayed until 12:30, We sat in my room for almost 4 hours just talking, and then at 12:20 we went outside and made teeny daisy chains because it was officially Monday. And I won't be seeing him today. And I won't see him tomorrow. Or the day after that. I might not see him again until after the new year. We're leaving for some random place tomorrow morning and we won't be back until Friday or Saturday. This means that I won't be able to write a journal entry every day. This means I won't have my 300th entry on Dec. 31 or Jan 1. It wouldn't be on Dec. 31 because I skipped Christmas but still... Oh well.That's the way these things go. It's not that big of a deal. I really shouldn't cry just because I'm going away and won't see caleb for a week. Because that just makes me feel stupid. Ugh, dependency is icky. I'm going out with Arina and her friends today! that'll be fun! and then this week I'll go on lots of hikes and to beaches and it'll be lots and lots of fun. I won't have time to be sad! That's right. I'll just keep telling myself that.
