I forgot to say something. When T asked what I wanted to take home from her office, I said, without hesitating: "YOU". I wish I could have taken her home, but I had to settle for a rock instead.
Thanks, suzzie.

tree: thank you. It's SO hard, though. I don't want to feel this bad. I think it's my main issue, not being able to cope with people leaving me. I just want to curl up in a ball and stay there!
