August 15, 1992 - Saturday - Kim's phone call

I received a phonecall today that I didn't expect in a million trillion years. Chrissy told me that was the reason I got it. I was standing by the phone at about noon when the phone rang. I picked it up during the first ring. It was Kim!!! She was on break at Busch Gardens and said that she called because she never got the chance to really say goodbye. I said OK and then we both said goodbye at the exact same time. It was funny. We talked for ten minutes before she had to go. I noticed how both our voices sounded a little choked up at some point during our conversation. She wanted to know how my packing was coming along. I told her how I was rooting through everything, finding all of the good stuff to take, and how everything was a mess. Before she had to go she wished me good luck on my first year at college. I wished her good luck at..., and after a pause I said, 'your life.' I asked her how long she was scheduled for today, and she said from ten to 6:30. She told me that maybe she would call me tonight, or I could call her if I wanted to. I'll definitely call. She sounded so nice; I just wonder what ever gave her the notion to get up and call me. I'm really glad she did call because now I'll leave with a much better image of her than would be otherwise. I had still planned on writing her before but not until her birthday in January, but now it will be sooner.

Uncle Jon called too to see how I was getting along and to make sure that the Levi jeans he gave me fit. They did and I told him that I really appreciated them. It makes it so I can go a good ten days without having to do laundry, I wish. He said not to worry about laundry though, because that is what you get a girlfriend for and we laughed. It's funny because that's what I have been saying all along.
