Moving outs!

 Deb Fisher called. She says she and Mark have patched things up and can be friends again. They've talked a bit on the phone, it seems.

I called Deb Flam afterwards and was lucky to get her. Her parents have discovered she has herpes. She had to tell them as she had to go to a doctor. They are very upset and have kicked her out of the house. She is living with an aunt at the moment and very upset about it all. 

(2025 side note: what is it with everyone being kicked out of their houses? What the heck??)

Steve called after that. Yesterday he had the drama football game. He said he was surprised I didn't go. I was a bit silent as I was angry about it all, but I cooled down and it "became all right.)

(2025 side note: Interesting turn of phrase there, when I think about mental health, looking at Ashes and also modern cognitive therapy techniques)

His mother is still quite sick, and he says she's still planning on getting rid of him, because she can't have him upsetting her. After all, she has (possibly) what Mrs. Dobro had--a breast tumor. She's very worried. 

(2025 side note: what the heck? Is this Days of Our Lives?)
