well, so much for a graceful exit . . .
Mom took the last bath she'll have for the next month last night (Vietnam is showers only, you weirdos!) and instructed me to wake her up when I left for work, to give Mom and Pop plenty of time to get to the airport.
I did my part, and Mom decided to keep sleeping. Which made them leave late. And then Mom nagged Pop about driving slow. And Pop took a chance he shouldn't have took. Everybody is alright, but the insurance is going to declare Pop's car totalled, even though he was apparently able to drive it home in one piece.
So begins my lonely vigil of watering plants and cleaning Mayday's litterbox. The rats are staying with Ray.
