A Year In Mill Valley

Rachel called at 11:45, “I’m going by Cafe Trieste, see you in 3 minutes.” “Ok” I said, “I’ll be outside.”

Rachel stopped in front of work, and dropped off Sebastian for me to take care of while she went to the dentist. I opened the door, helped Sebastian out of the car, took the bag with her computer and a Stuart Little movie, and slid the door shut. I stuck my head in the front window to chat, and she laughed, “You know, I haven’t been away from the two of them, and by myself for over a month!”. “I know” I replied. “Sad really, when I have to go to the dentist to have my teeth drilled to get a little time by myself.”

“Right” I smiled, “enjoy it while you got it! See you in an hour and a half.”
