No news, good or bad...

Nothing's changed. I'll think I get something and then that brick wall smacks me in the head again. She doesn't have a computer...doesn't go online very much at all. She does have a MySpace page that a friend set up for her but that didn't give me anything. I've e-mailed the few people that she knows that are out of town, so far I haven't heard anything. I spoke to another of her friends again this morning...but the only information she had for me was information I already had. She has agreed, if my daughter contacts her, to suggest that they meet somewhere to 'hang'...and she'll call me with where and when.

I don't expect it'll happen, though.

She took a cab to get wherever it is that she went, but the cab company won't tell me where they took her without a warrant and the police won't issue a warrant unless there's something 'suspicious'. I guess a 13-year-old being missing for 36+ hours isn't very suspicious. I guess...never mind. I don't want to go there. Anyway, I pushed the police into at least calling the cab company but they didn't get the information, either. I went down there with a police officer in tow...nothing.

Assholes.

I sat up last night until the sun came up, crawling out of my skin every time a car drove by and jumping at every little sound. At one point, at about 1 a.m., four cars pulled up in front of my house....but before I could get to the door, they had pulled away down the street about a half-block, turned around and left. I ran out to try and get a license number but couldn't...

Shit.

Anyway, I was hesitant to bring this all up again...you've all been so wonderful and supportive and helpful with ideas and suggestions and good wishes and...

Girly-poo and I couldn't ask for more.
