Ever want to get away???

Remember TSG? The guy I'd been trading emails with who said he wanted "in?" Well, since I hadn't heard anything from him since that encouraging (if short) email, I was left wondering. And never one to let sleeping dogs lie, I decided to poke it a little.

"Maybe I misunderstood," I wrote in my email. "I thought you wanted 'in' as if you were 'INterested' in being 'INvolved.'"

Just a day later, I received an email from TSG apologizing for his disappearance but it seems his mother is in the hospital and will probably never come home again. He's spent the last few weeks caring for her and trying to make the impossible decisions regarding her long-term care and housing.

Um...yep, that nails it. I'm going to burn in hell.
