Dear Diary:

There's only a couple of days until my last entry to you for awhile. I leave Conway in 59 hours, so I'll be logging off of my lists on Saturday. Tomorrow, I have to have my mail forwarded to the unix machine so that I will be able to access it remotely.

Today has been a work day. I made notes for the people covering my classes, especially for Fred, who's covering the Abstract Algebra class.

I also printed off the helpful hints that I have gotten from Kristin, Allison, Christy, and Karen.

I spent the majority of the day cleaning my apartment in preparation for the arrival of Karen and Randall. Well, I actually spent more time watching The Neverending Story, Columbo, and Mrs. Columbo on television. :)

But the apartment is almost clean, except for the bathtub and a little vacuuming. I'll finish that soon and probably take a nap before they get here at 11pm.

I also need to make a few more phone calls looking for rides. Hallie's truck broke down on the freeway last week, so Plan B failed. Several of my friends are going camping together this weekend, so there went plans C through ? I'm still hoping that Dee or Ronny can give me a ride, so I'll call them tonight. It's not a big worry because Steve said he would take me if I can't find someone else, but I would rather not bother him since that would mean he would have to wake Sarah up at an ungodly hour of the morning. I'll be leaving town at 5:30am.

At least I've had enough to do to keep busy, so I haven't had time to dwell on getting nervous. :)

Tomorrow there is one last run to the bank and a bit of shopping to do. Saturday, I'll be doing laundry one last time before I go. I think spreading out the things to do is overall a good idea. I wish I had thought of it earlier.

Love and Peace,

Robyn (who is 90% packed already)

That turned out to be the last entry in the pre-surgery diary. The story continues with My Wisconsin Adventure, the story of journey to Wisconsin for surgery.
