...or, more precisely, his grandmother.
She gave me a call because DB left his cell at home and when she went to charge it to take it to him for his basic graduation (weekend of Nov. 30-Dec 2), she found a voicemail from me and decided to let me know how things were. We had quite a conversation. She's a funny, classy lady. She also lamented that I was basically alone on Thanksgiving; she said if she had known I was at the dorms alone she would have brought me over to spend the day with the family. What a wonderful person. i hadn't got the chance t talk to her before DB left, but I'm glad I have now.
She also gave me his address. While it's a little bit close, I found the letters I have written to him over the last couple of months and mailed them off this morning. I think this was a case of DB's absent-mindedness, seeing as I know I gave him my address to send his address to... in fact, I tucked it into his wallet, just so he wouldn't lose it.
(I love that man, but he is sooo absent-minded.)
His grandmother also mentioned how lonely he had been for most of his training. I don't expect him to write me too often, largely because I am the one who actually likes to write between the two of us, but I was going crazy for lack of hearing anything.
She promised that as soon as she handed him his phone that she would tell him to call me. She also said that if he forgot (again) to send me his address, that she would do so.
Thanks be for this lady.
