Then a decision, to turn around or keep going. Would depend on how far-out she gets, before the discovery is made. I suppose she will have to email me. Now I am going to have to keep checking my email, even after my five o'clock whistle stop. Such a frazzle. Think I better start packing her phone. Then there is the address. Eeeeeeegad ! Do I even have it ? She moved since I been up there Oregon. If I'm not there, it doesn't exist. Am I everywhere that she is not ?

What will she do now? I will probably have to mail it to her - hair dryer as well. I saw the phone there in the kitchen before she left, and was going to bring it into the living room. But the phone and charger were plugged, so I thought don't dis-plug the phone. She's on it. Now - I half expect her back. What do I do now? The connected is disconnected. How is she going to communicate up there, in the gorgonian western-wilds ? Does she have a land-line ? If so - she can get by. Otherwise looks like would have to be by email.

So will put it in the land of So. It's So and So. See if it sticks. Got a box that's the first thing. It's the right size. Now I need packing. Precious little of that around here, since I can't afford a morning newspaper. Maybe I tear-out and use yellow pages. And I never use my phone. But I did today, called her, who I ran into on Wednesday, and just after my pressure drop and tumbling near pass-out. She's a medicinal woman. How coincidental.
