Victim No More

[LoisB]

Thanks so much. I started to think, well, maybe he has found what he wanted and he has moved on...

Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but he acted like he didn't want to get off the phone. We used to do this silly thing where I'd say Goodbye and He'd say Goodbye, but neither would hang up. And it happened during this phone call. We used to laugh about it and tease each other. There was no teasing tonight but I felt it--we were both thinking the same thing about this old "thing" we did on the phone.

I said goodbye and he said he looked forward to hearing from me about our daughter. Then, he says OK, bye. How are the dogs?

I almost didn't hear it because he said it so fast. I had to ask "did you just ask about the dogs?" He said--Yeah, how are the dogs?

One of our dogs is on death's door. He's a 15-yr-old border collie and he was H's dog.

The whole thing is so cuckoo. How are the dogs? Oh, and he asked if I got a car. Huh? You don't talk to me for months, don't talk to the kids for months and you want to know about the dogs and the car? HUH?????
