The most unbelieveable thing happened tonight! Mandy and I went out to dinner and- *gasp*- we saw an attractive guy! He wasn't exactly my type, to be honest, but he was attrative all the same, and that still counts! (Ben, where are you? Come rescue me, please!)

Well, tomorrow I will be heading home on the train since Daddy doesn't feel well. His back has really been bothering him lately. So Mandy will drive me to Altoona to get the train. While we're there, we're going to look at patterns and material to make my prom dress. Pretty cool, huh?

On the way home from dinner, Mandy and I listened to a Jon Anderson album called "Change We Must". It has some really beautiful love songs on it. Anyway, she started talking about her and Daddy and how in love they are and stuff, and do you know what? I started to cry! Well, only a little. But I began to think about all the times my heart has been broken, and how much I cared about the person who did it. Worst of all, I realized something: I have never had faith in a boyfriend the way Mandy has in Daddy. She knows, wholeheartedly, that he loves her and would do anything for her. I was never that sure about anybody before, and I have always questioned whether a person's feelings for me were genuine, or as strong as mine. And I cried, but only a very little bit. I guess I felt alone, I don't know.

What I do know is that I really miss Ben and I can't wait to see him again. Come hell or high water, I'm going home!
