So after I wrote, Mom got up from her nap, and nagged me for all she was worth. Sunny went with her friend Julia for her birthday. I was moping, a little because Kathleen and Sarah skipped out of school "sick"-- much like I did yesterday. (I went to work with my mom.) At nine, I lost hope of David calling, and mom nagged until I burst into tears, and didn't even let up after that. So there I was-- locked in my room, feeling sorry for myself, when the phone rings. Me-- stupid romantic who ...
Major stress weight lifted off my shoulders! Went and had a chat with my boss about whether or not i could get five weeks unpaid leave for Australia. Well he said no, (which i knew he would, hence i aproached it as a hopeless request) but said that just between the two of us, he may be able to sort out three PAID weeks instead of the five.

I didn't usually think of him, or the other brothers, as Medieval thinkers, but that idea was very spiritual and Medieval. That idea was also mystical and closely related to the Kaballistic view ...
Well, to start with the most pressing thing on my plate, I've done some research for Mandy. We'll be meeting on Thursday, and I just hope I can convince her to take the necessary steps. We'll see, but I will be sure to update on the situation when I can. I talked with a local battered women shelter, and they were able to tell me exactly what is needed to remove her from the situation. It is almost strange that it is both as difficult and simple as filling out the necessary paperwork. ...
