at some weird house. thera is on the phone. we're cooking dinner or something. thera gets off the phone and is crying. "we've lost him," she says, and explains that josh decided not to go back to mudd. i suddenly get really angry and take the phone outside to call him.

i'm outside of my mom's house in ashland, walking around in front of the neighbors house. the phone is super weird and i'm having trouble figuring it out. it looks like a super fancy cordless from about 10 years ago. big and bulky with a million weird buttons. the things i'm going to tell him are running through my head (so stupid, what are you thinking, haven't you learned anything, etc). i finally get it to dial and am waiting for someone to answer as a bunch of people walk by. i recognize one of them as erin kimball from high school. i'm not sure if she recognizes me, but feel like i should go say hi, except that i have to talk to josh first.
