saying
"excuse me" and Gavin White rolling his chair out from behind the
board. I
remember Carly asking him if he knew what time the bus would be coming
from
Lancaster the next day. I remember Gavin saying in a frustrated voice
that
there would be no bus, that buses never came first session, that there
hadn't
been a bus first session in over 11 years, that if we wanted to see our
Lancaster friends we should have gone second session. I remember not
being
able to respond because I was crying. I remember Carly saying, "isn't

stand
there crying.

like a little girl wearing her daddy's oversized fishing hat.
59. I remember Paul asking to borrow my "sandals on crack". I remember

TO
SLEEP, RACHEL!" I remember Laura eventually having to leave and saying,
"ok,
I have to leave, are you gonna be ok without me? Cause I can stay if
you
really need me too." I remember Rachel saying, "no no no, you can
leave,
I'll be FINE."

detail that I wasn't there, but I remember hearing about it and
laughing!
