Despite my better judgement, I told dad that I told mom while he was mad at the dryer for not drying. The dryer died, so a new one has to be bought. For my family, that's like putting out a down payment on a new Caddy... kind of.

He said to try to get Dan to call when I can. I asked if why he couldn't call like he said he would. He said it wouldn't be untill Wednesday or Thursday before that would happen. Then he went into the crapper.
