September 26th

School started last week, and even though Astrid has been coming over every afternoon to see me, I'm already bored out of my mind. I thought when I got my leg I could go back to school with everyone else, but instead I'm stuck at home watching trashy TV until Astrid visits me.

She was almost as excited as I was when I got my leg, and even though she keep telling me to be careful, she let me drag her out whenever I could. I felt like I've been locked away from the world until I got my new leg! It's still sore though, but Eret says that I just need to slow down and not rush, which is ridicules; how can I slow down when I can walk! Well…stumble, but still!

Even though I have a stick to help me, Astrid still holds onto my free arm so I don't fall over, which has only happen 3 times this week, which, compared to last few weeks (I did more falling than walking) is a great improvement.

We're been going to the park lately, there a lot of benches around so if I get tired I can just sit down and take a breather, Astrid doesn't say anything, which is nice. The last time we went to the park my stump wasn't arching as much as it usually does, so we walked right through the park and got some ice cream. When we got back to my house, Astrid keep jabbing me in the arm and scolding me for staining myself, but thanked me for a 'pretty okay date' and then kissed me. Every time she does that I just want to melt.

I wouldn't say we're dating, or that we're boyfriend and girlfriend. It's just…really casual, which is suppose is nice right now. Maybe when I can finally go back to school and be normal again it can become something more? I don't know…

Man I hope Astrid doesn't find this book.
