I also learned a new word. Thanks for the encouragement everyone. My friend and I just got to Las Vegas today. I didn;t realize how far of a drive it was from NY to here. Thank goodness I'm flying home.

Right after leaving at the end of last week towards the end of first night of driving, my parents call and say W wants to go to the house to take care of dog and bird. They told her that its alright they will take care of them and watch the house - 1 of them is sleeping there nightly.

The ride across the country so far was hard to keep my mind off W. Second night on road, I made the mistake of calling to talk to S3 - forgot about hour difference and got crucified for calling so late and upsetting S3. Then got told to fly home day after getting to vegas to get on with our D. Just tried to calm W down and talk like a rational person - didn't work. Tried asking her why she wanted to watch the pets all of a sudden - only answer she would give me is I don't think its fair to your parents - I told her they don't mind. She left off by telling me not to talk to her ever again - OK bye.

Next day alarm monitor calls - house alarm set off - had police dispatched and sent parents over to see what was going on. W tried to get into house - hhmmm... I wonder why the alarm and pass word were changed before leaving. Well she didn't get to take anything - although I can't legally keep her out of the house it did deter her for now. My parents told her if she needs anything they will be happy to come over and let her in.

Should be interesting to see what awaits for me when I return home - especially since I will be gone for a week longer then what the W knows about. After all its time that I do things and see things that I've always wanted to do - and now I'm doing them for me. Sounds selfish to me - maybe - but you know what I think I need some real time for me at this point in time.
