After getting home from Maia's on Wednesday, Rumor and I spoke briefly and then it was decided she would spend the night at my house. She stayed almost all day yesterday, too, and she and my mom talked a lot too. My mom had just gotten the news that she had finally gotten a job, so we were all pretty  excited about that. She starts Monday--hopefully she isn't too used to the schedule of the unemployed.

This morning I got online and found via Facebook that Ben's older sister had died. I don't know how or why or any of that, but I felt terrible. I didn't know her at all--I actually didn't even know he had an older sister--but I felt really bad for him. I sent him a message saying I was there to talk and everything. Hopefully I'll get a follow-up on that, because I really hate not being able to help. (Of course, it's all about me and how I feel, right? Ugh, that's not how I intended for it to sound.) Okay. Well, I hope he gets through it all right.

Tomorrow I have my SATS and I like those better than AP tests since you can use a calculator and you get your results faster. I'm gonna practice bass once I'm done blogging. I want to get back into my clarinet since I haven't seriously played it since eighth grade (though that means I'll have to find another hiding spot for the secret rubber) but I don't have any reeds and as all intelligent people know, a clarinet is useless without a reed.
