I, ladies and gentlemen, am quietly depressed at the moment.

Life goes on, life goes on.

I leave tomorrow afternoon.

Candace is coming over so we can fit the bike rack on her vehicle.

I don't really want to go back to Red Deer.

I do and I don't.

I miss Nelson when I'm there.

I miss my friends, though I *do* have friends there.

I'm really going to miss it here. I'm going to miss Loren, and Colleen, and Kristal, and maybe even Ken, though sometimes I wonder about him.

I phoned Mike today, left a message on his answering machine. I was feeling pretty depressed, so it was a pretty depressing message.

Not so much the message was depressing, just the tone of my voice.

I gotta finish cleaning, though, so I'll seeya later.

I'm gonna go phone Loren. See if he'll come over and cheer me up.

PS, My family went out for dinner tonight. We were going to go to the Outer Clove, which puts garlic in *everything*, but I managed to talk people out of it, because Loren doesn't like kissing me when I've been eating garlic. Sounds stupid, but I did. We went to another restaurant and I had seafood alfredo, which was good, but it had baby octopi in it, and they were purple, and kind of weird.

PPS, I think Loren gave me his cold. My throat hurts like hell.
