John,

My dad phoned you not long after 7:30, it is now 9:30 and I have not received any E-mails from you yet. I just wanted to make sure that you got the E-mail I sent you yesterday titled “Friday's thoughts” because you haven’t responded yet to confirm that you can stay until 7PM.

John,

Is one to 7PM okay for you on Sunday? We could leave at a quarter after 5 to pick up Chinese food at Safeway and then be back at my place in time for the six o’clock news. Now this will only make up for two hours of the three and a half that we didn’t use when I had to cancel, so we’ll still have an extra hour and a half left to make up sometime after Sunday. And I hope that I won’t have a lousy sleep on the night before Sunday, otherwise you know that I won’t want you to stay that late (7PM).

You asked me yesterday if I got anything for my mom yet for her birthday. I did say in the E-mail I sent you two Fridays ago (on the 13h of this month) that she suggested I could get her Alison Krauss and Robert Plant’s new CD, “Raising Sand.” I remember that this CD was #2 on the “Top CDs in sales” list when you were reading out loud the pages with the “Top 10” lists in yesterday’s Vancouver Sun, I might’ve got out with my dad by now and got it for her if I didn’t have so many lousy sleeps this month. It might have to be a late birthday present for her.

Now, here are all my meals and snacks for Wednesday Feb.25,2009:

Need a full page message to display this chart.

I remember that yesterday you asked me if I have a snack in the evenings. I talked about my evening snacks in many of my previous E-mails, so you should’ve known by now that I have one everyday. And it’s always at the same time, 9PM. Also, I’m not up early enough to have brunch on most days and so I usually start with lunch. On the few days when I have something that I need to get up early for, I have a dish of canned fruit (usually either peaches or pears) with chocolate milk to drink.

You suggested when you saw me last Thursday (on the 19th) that I start writing down what I eat everyday and also write down whether I had a good sleep on the night before, or a bad sleep, or if I was up lots going to the bathroom. I already said in the E-mail I sent you on Tuesday Feb.10,2009 that my mom was going to take one of my old notebooks and start keeping track. She just didn’t remember that she was going to do that until after last Thursday when you suggested doing this, but now she’s doing it.

You asked me many times including yesterday if I ever wear a toque when it’s too cold so I asked my mom and she said that she’ll have to look to see if I still have one. If I do have one, I know that it’s been a long time since the last time I wore it.

And you said that I should watch “The Wizard of Oz” again so that I’ll se the part that I didn’t remember when Dorothy threw water on the Wicked Witch who then screamed “I'm melting.” I’ve already told you many times in previous E-mails that I won’t do that until after I see “the Grinch.”

Also last Thursday (the 19th), you told me about how you’re making a joke whenever we see a house for sale on our walks. When you see the realtor’s name on the sign, you said that you’re making the joke by asking me if I know who that realtor is even if it’s a name you recognize after I already told you that I know that person. Our walk on Monday the 16th though, it sounded to me more like you were asking me again if Karley Smith’s the one I met after I had already told you in the E-mail I sent you on Saturday Jan.31,2009 that she’s not the one I met.

After my mom and dad left Costco yesterday afternoon, they saw an accident at where 200th Street crosses the Langley Bypass. It looked like the truck was trying to turn at the intersection when either it hit a car or a car ran into the truck because my mom could see that the car hit halfway along the length of the truck

And I saw a commercial last Saturday evening (the 21st of this month) on TV for the Dairy Queen chicken strip basket, and I saw a dog in the commercial.

I hope you will write me before Sunday.

-Neil
