"Hiya Brandi." "Carey, have you talked to Jay recently?" She sounded concerned. "I was just about to call him as a matter of fact." "I've been trying to call him for the past two days and I get no answer and Susie told me he didn't show up at work today." An alarm bell went off I the back of my head. "I can't get ahold of Lizzy either," I told her. "I was going to ask Jay to drive by and check on her." "Where are you Carey?" "I'm stuck in glorious Fairbanks Alaska until tomorrow. Wait. You said Susie told you Jay didn't show at work, is he not at home?" "I don't know. I'm in Baltimore right now and am supposed to be here until Friday, but with the chance that Kate could hit Houston my boss set me up to fly to Denver tomorrow to ride the storm out." "Denver? Why not fly you home?"
