HAPPY LITTLE LEXIE

We've had a changing of the guards. Lex is now back in Wimberley, and I am in Houston. John actually gets two days off beginning tomorrow - for the first time since the spill began! (well, unless you count his time in the hospital) Not sure if he will feel up to doing much - he may just want to catch up on some sleep. He finally gets in to see his own cardiologist on Thursday.

To pass the time while in Houston, Lex must've been keeping tabs on Austin rentals via Craig's List, and she got a hit - one that sounded almost too good to be true. She found a guy who wanted to sublet his room in a three bedroom duplex in the Hyde Park area (very top of her list!) for less than $500 a month. She went directly there on her way back from Houston, took one look around and said "I'll take it!" The really good news is that the other two roomies are hardly ever there. Turns out the guy who's room she is taking is moving to Tennessee, and he leaves today, so she can move in any time (probably next weekend). I guess he's pretty delighted too, to have someone show up just in the nick of time like that.

Kinda thought I'd have more time to get used to the idea of losing my best girlfriend and roomie, but can't help but be happy for her. The girl's on cloud nine!
