11:54 pm	From: THe Mom To: The Son Dear Diary, I haven't had time to write to you lately. Just too busy I guess. Quit my job, got a new one, love my new job.... and yet.... still, something is missing. I can't remember if it's florida and africa or florida and south america. "His" image is beginning to fade. It seems the only way I can remember his beautiful face is upside-down.... how odd! I wonder if "Thatgirl" appreciates his wonderful passive-aggressively playful way of communicating. Or his sweet lazy way of not doing anything he is told until he is good and ready. Or the wonderful way he says "You're a crackhead." Does he call "Thatgirl" a crackhead too? Oh, diary, I just can't stand it. How can I stop hem from using that wonderful term of endearment for his new love when I can't help but agree.... she IS a crackhead... just like me.

8:01 pm	Re: "Thatgirl" Date: Mon, 22 Mar 2004 16:58:48 -0800 (PST) From: Son To: Mom .......if you don't pose a question, I have nothing to reply to! Let's play make-pretend. I'll be you, and then I'll be me. Me as you: What'd you do today, oh wonderful and best son evar? Me as Me: Sat around keegan's house all day. Then went to Meijer (similar to Target/Walmart) for some necessities. What necessities, you ask? Well... I left home thinking i'd grabbed everything that I would need. Alas, I forgot a few key items. Keegan just happened to have a spare electric razor laying around, so I won't be scruffy anymore tomorrow. The boardie kids bought me a real razor with the intent of teaching me how to shave, but we ran out of time. So I have a mach3 in my bag begging for a face (or leg). So I didn't have to buy an electric razor. I did, however, get a couple sticks of deoderant ($5), my special Pert Plus for Oily Hair ($3), Two Button-Down shirts ($18), three coloured undershirts ($7), underthings ($10), a pillow ($4), 10 servings of ramen ($1), and some pineapple fruit bowls ($3). Also, i did laundry (in a laundromat! first time! new experience!) and bought Dinner for tonight and tomorrow. $67.58, not too shabby, and less than I had expected. And as far as I can tell, that's all the non-food I should need, and enough food to last me a fair while. Love! Miss! --The Klif dv (Comment on this)
4:13 pm	AIM Conversation Dad: you in Kentucky? Son: yup. lexington, to be exact. me and keegan (the guy i'm staying with for the week) are going to walmart shortly for some necessities. Dad: Cool. Sometimes I wish I could have just picked up and gone somewhere when I was your age. Butch did it several times, and I always wondered how he did it. I've just always been a bit too cautious :-) Anyway, everyone we've told about your adventure says "good for him!"...and we agree with them! Son: hooray for well-wishings! Son: i'm glad i've up'n left too, even though i'm not even in muncie f'good yet. Son: jordan and I (through the magic of AIM and laptops) have already started looking for a job and an apartment for me. Dad: Cool! That's great news! Son: apartments are way cheap. we've seen non-gross for between 200 and 350/month. which, with a full-time job, is nothing. Son: question about my bills: Son: what do i have left? Son: and is the car still my responsibility? or are you taking over that, or what? Dad: The car is mine...I'm taking over payments, and I've talked to the dealer about what it's going to cost to have it finished. Just a sec... Dad: ...I'm back...the dealer told me how much, and with the cash you left me, the cash left over from income tax refund, and the cash I'm getting at the end of the month from an insureance rebate I get every year, I'm only going to be about 200.00 short for everything but the heater core. I should have it running in about six to eight weeks. Dad: As for your other bills, you have the student loan at 50.00 per month, and your computer at 43.00 per month. Nothing else. Son: schweet Dad: When it comes time that you've go money for a car payment, let me know and I'll tell you how to deal with the car dealers. Son: cool, cool. Dad: I'm going now...got someone waiting to see me. Stay in touch!!!! Son: have fun! Dad: k (Comment on this)
9:49 am	"Thatgirl" From: Mom To: Son Subject: "Thatgirl" Dear Diary, "He" called today. It was glorious to hear his voice, and to hear he was doing well. And even though he said he loved me I knew that his heart had been stolen by another, by "Thatgirl." He thinks she's wonderful! And, drat it all, I think she's wonderful too!

7:35 am	"Quote" From: Son To: Mom I still think i'm worth at least seven boxes of pocky, thankyouverymuch. Jordan's parents were surprised that I was coming. In fact, when Jordan said on the phone that someone was coming with them to Georgia, the assumed it would be one of her Chick-Friends that had already been travelling with her. Whoops! Imagine their surprise when a strange dude climbed out of Jordan's car! Jordan and family will be visiting extended family in Georgia, and her Dad doesn't want to spring for another hotel room. So I'm spending a near-week in Lexington Kentucky with Keegan, who will then drive me back up to Muncie. So it'll be a week before I actually get to start "settling in", although I expect the actual settling won't happen for a while. So, hey, I intended to ask you kids this after Jordan left, while I was still at home. but, chuckle, that didn't happen as I'd thought: What do you kids think of Jordan, anyway? Love! Miss! Woe! --The Klif dv (Comment on this)

11:05 pm	"That girl" From: Mom To: Son Dear Diary, Where oh where could he be? And just what is "that girl's" last name, you know, the one that bought "him" from me for 5 boxes of Pocky? If you should speak to "him" diary, please tell "him" to tell "her" that the hi is mutual. I wonder how "her" parents reacted to the "kitten" that followed "her" home from Texas. I EXPECT he'll be looking for a job soon. Oh how I wish I knew... And yet, still no answers. Mommy (Comment on this)
6:23 pm	Sad! Miss! Love! From: Son To: Mom aw. you make me CRY! We got to Muncie just fine, and we've driven down to North Carolina to visit some (boardie) friends. Since I was an unexpected addition, we're fanangling things to get me back again to Muncie. I'm staying with a fella named Keegan (a boardie whom I've met many-a-time before) for a near-week while Jordan and her immediate family are visiting Jordan's extended family. So I'll be back in Muncie a week, sunday. Don't forget my website, http://deovolenti.livejournal.com I update it nearly daily, and I'll email you, too. Sad! Miss! Love! (Jordan says "Hi!") --The Klif dv P.S.: Re: your emails: you're so weird! (Comment on this)

6:20 pm	Him From: Mom To: Son Dear Diary, I saw a car today that reminded me of.... "Him" ...................................................... It was orange. Mommy (Comment on this)
9:30 am	He's gone. (sniff, sniff) From: Mom To: Son Dear Diary, This morning I looked into the room where "he" used to live. There was the light that was always on for as long as he lived there. And so I slowly walked in to the room, so recently vacated and now empty... so empty, and I slowly reached out... and then... I turned out the light... Mommy (Comment on this)
6:08 am	Come Back! From: Mom To: Son Today is trash day and you did not take out the trash. So come back and you can leave after you take care of your resposibilities. Luv you, Mommy (Comment on this)
