Looong day!
I woke up (I like to do that every morning) to the sounds of Mom telling me that the Centralia library called (I work at the Chehalis one) and they wanted me to sub for them, 4 hours. Bleh. I am too nice of a person to say no, pitty. Well, this was only my second time working over there, and I am still amazed at how large that library is! Wow!
Any-who, a few interesting things I spotted: A book by someone with the last name Tuttle (sadly, I forgot to check to see the first name lol), a book called The Idiot's Guide to Ferrets (that cheered me up some), and a kiddie book called William's Doll. This book where song came from? or vicea-versa? Written in 1976 if I recal correctly.
And, cause I feel like being nice (snicker), here is Part 3 of Goodbye Isn't Forever:
PART 3
The next few days feel like an implosion ready to happen. Plans are being made around you for you to join your father’s private practice. Talking-talking would make things better, but you are alone…even though your father is always close by.
Your first chance for a break in the endless preparations and you find a phone in your hands and you wonder how it had jumped there. A small eternity later and it is ringing to someplace across the states-someplace in California.
“Peg?” A pang of jealousy for something you didn’t have. “Is BJ there?” You manage to hear him over your loudly thumping heart. “It’s Hawkeye.”

You must have sounded down in the dumps. BJ-best friend, fellow prankster, and something more-had invited himself over, and you had agreed. His own private practice was slowly coming along, and he could use a vacation, or so he said.
Your dad’s eyebrows went the way of his hairline at the news. “No spare room for guests?” you had repeated his words. “He can stay in my room. Better yet in my bed. I never use it.” Problem solved…or was another one just created?
Evident in every bounce, smile, and joke was your joy. You felt like the day after tomorrow would never come. Well, it never would, but the Saturday of BJ’s arrival soon would. Your dad notices the change in your mood. You, however, don’t notice his smile evaporating every time you leave a room. He knew, even if you didn’t yet. And the thought angered him…he feared he was right and hoped he was wrong.

Sorry the parts are so short. It makes me feel like it is longer if there are lots of 'em :D
