It’s been a week and a half, and still nothing. Kristen thinks I’m starting to use this blog as an excuse to avoid dealing with how scared I am that something has happened to my family. Maybe. Probably.

Still no word from Nash, if he even got my message. But I have been getting a ton of comments, emails, suggestions and encouragement from those of you reading the blog. (It means a lot to me, too – thanks to all of you who are reading, and who have bothered to post, even if you don’t know anything.)

Also, a lot of you seem to have ideas about what might be going on. I don’t understand all of them, and – no offense – I hope they’re all wrong, but at least reading them has given me something to do. Will try to post a few of them this evening, in case the rest of you want to read them and let me know what you think.
