I usually don't bother so much with answering early morning phone calls, but I felt like something bad was happening on the other end of this phone call. I woke up out of sleep and felt strangely awake as I answered a phone call at 6:20 AM (usually I sleep deeply enough that I go right through these things).
Jamie has had a massive falling out with her sisters after a drunken argument. I'm hoping sleep and sobreity will prevail and things can be resolved. If not, she's going to be doing everything she can to come back a few days early, even if that means Emily and her leave on different flights. It's a situation I never dreamed could occur, and it puts everything about the Seattle move on hold.
She was at a breaking point, to the extreme of talking about killing herself and how she'd do it. I don't know how to react to that kind of stuff, past the statement of: 'Please don't'. I have to hope a lot of this was down to it being Jamie's first day of being able to get drunk (antibiotics up until now) and everyone had too much as a 'celebration'.
I have to call her at noon my time to wake up the group up. Their plan for today was to see the rainforests in a rental car Jamie paid for. Apparently this was how the argument started, so it might be too sore a point for anyone to do anything. I don't know. I'm hoping when everyone wakes up and sobers up this will have resolved itself, but I'm very uncertain about it all. I guess I have to find out more about it, just like everyone else will at some point when Jamie writes up about it.
You should get that tattooed somewhere on you. Since May, you've been using it like crazy.
