My mother came down today. She brought down my laptop and iMac. I insisted she send them in the mail but she said she wanted to go for a "drive."

She rented a room at a motel we were staying at and before we went to bed she told me to sit down. She wanted to talk to me.

I sat down across from her on the bed. She looked in my eyes and hesitated. She wanted to tell me to go home. But she knew I hadn't even considered the possibility, although I had.

She told me to take care of myself.
