Friday

Bug worked late yesterday, after school, and I picked him up around 9:30 pm. We left about 45 minutes later and picked up Petunia from a field trip - the girl group she belongs to at school took them to see Wicked at the Times Union Center. First Broadway play she's ever seen live and LOVED IT! So jealous, wish I could have gone! LOL

Picked up Sharky this morning and had a super cheap but delicious breakfast at a Famous Amos. Then swung to his workplace, picked up his paycheck, deposited it, and came home. Made an almost complete circle 'round Jacksonville to do it all. LOL Found out he might have to work out of town again very soon.

Bug will be picked up by the USMC recruiters this evening for an overnight stay and PT tomorrow. He's nervous and excited.

I miss Malcolm terribly. I keep looking for him at all his usual spots and then remember he's no longer with us. I keep removing things from the arm of the couch so he won't knock 'em over and then remember, he won't be. I feel numb, but sometimes have the urge to just howl in grief. I don't, but the urge is still there.
