I am taking an online medical transcription course. Its about 1000 hours and is quite intense for me. Learning medical words is like learning a whole new language! I enjoy it when I can sit and do it.

I really like that! It does really put things in perspective doesn't it?

Ok..so at 8:04 exh sent a text saying he was going to his dads grave and will text after. I said ok.
At 8:45 he sent a pic/text of his dad's grave. Why? I didn't respond. I figured he was looking for sympathy. He can get that from someone else. Oh btw, his dad was very similar to exh. An addict that progressively got worse, cheated on his mother, abusive, etc until he died at 42 of a drug overdose.

Now its 9:34. He has 25 minutes left for his visitation. Have not heard a word from him.

Oh, now I just heard...Not going to make it down this morning. Maybe later.

I didn't respond.

Im speechless!
