Plan Girl in action!

I need a cape.

First, I'm going to Alaska. Friday early I leave, stopping for a day in Anchorage to play with the Holts in their yurt. Saturday out to Kodiak; memorial on Sunday, leave late that night to return here by Monday night. My final is on Monday, so I have to arrange to take it another time - and I'm a little worried about when that might be.

The thing is - it's 82 degrees and humid here. Shorts and tank top are too much clothing.

There, it's in the mid-30's and snowing. I don't even have a heavy coat anymore. This will be interesting.

Second, I called Dayton's brother. Poor guy didn't even know Dayton was in Liberia. See, it's not just me that Dayton doesn't communicate with - it's everybody. But he isn't engaged to just everybody. He said he's going outside Monrovia and will not be in touch for over a month. I call bullshit. He does that, we've over. I understand he needs to do this and I understand that technology is nonexistent there. But he needs to understand that I need a real relationship and I'm not waiting any more for him. I just feel so frustrated - I can't reach him to communicate. Where the hell is his phone? He just said he didn't have one - what's with that? So, I felt better after talking to his brother (who also has a very mild Liberian accent) - just to say, "If you see Dayton, tell him he needs to call me immediately." I know I'm a pain in the ass, but overall, I've been pretty darn good to Dayton and I don't deserve to feel like this. I thought things would get better once he got to Liberia, but they're worse. And my patience - never my forte - is gone.

So, I am a single girl flying to Alaska instead of taking her law school finals.

Funny how my identity changes so quickly.

And now I MUST study. I don't know anything that I'm supposed to.
