So, it is Monday. I am really tired and awake at the same time. I went for a walk last night... I thought I had only been gone for an hour or two... No. It was actually 4 and half hours. I forgot that my cell-fone was on silent so I did not hear the calls of my Mym... So, I walked all over Middleton. At least a good 4 - 5 miles. I ended up heading towards the beach and saw what looked like Mym's car there. I wasn't sure at first but as I got closer I saw that it was. So I looked in it and nobody was there. I then realized that Mym and or Dada were out on the Loch looking for me. So I walked out onto the frozen wasteland and ended up going about a quarter mile out before I saw a blue-ish light. It was still fairly far off but I could see it blinking. Thinking that it was a porchlight or car across the Loch, I sort of disregaded it. I stopped on the Ice a few times to try and hear if anybody was moving out there. I heard a really faint crunching of snow way out on the Loch and assumed that it was either the Ice breaking or one of the Parental Units walking. I could not tell where the sound was coming from exactly so I headed towards the lights at the far end of the Loch. Then I noticed that the blue-is light seemed a lot closer and was bobbing up and down a little. I was kind of freaked out about that, as I had read about Willo'wisps earlier in the week. I am a geek. So I decided to do some echo soundings. First, I did a couple whistles to see if anything replied. No. Then I did a few little chirp-ish-like calls. I feared that if I did them to loud I would break the Ice beneath me. After about the third or fourth call, I heard what sounded like a "Hello?" way out still. I called out, "Hayy!" a little louder and heard the voice say, "Where have you been!?" I knew it was Dada then. I also realized that the blue-ish light was his headlamp. I bounded towards it and met up with him about three quarters of a mile out on the Loch. We walked all the way back and he told me Mym would be uber upset and such. She was... She was all weeping and was sad and stuff. I felt bad but I was really wired still and was kind of mean by just telling her to get over it. We are okay now though. So that was my night. Now it is 2 in the afternoon and I am typing this huge entry. I am less tired than when I started too. I'm going to go see if the mail has arrived yet. Maybe I will update later!
P.S. - The Moon was grand last night!!
