i got this email from sister #3:
Jodi,
Where in the hell are you? I am worried. I called you today and nobody answered and you never called me back. I went on Iwilldare- I didn’t read anything-(besides your last entry-that you were babysitting at 7:57 on September 5th) I just wanted to make sure you are alive. I just think it’s weird that I haven’t seen you online today and you never called me back. I know you are alive because you wrote on iwilldare today. Please, Please let me know you are okay. It’s 3:30 AM and I couldn’t sleep. For God’s sake woman….call me, e-mail me, do something!

there’s proof! someone would miss me if i were gone. of course, this throws a wrench in my ever-near-the-surface plans to run away and not leave a note. but you know, i’ll take this.
