Well, I'm taking the phone off the hook until I get back. I don't want people knowing I'm not home.
I don't know when I'll be back, of course.
I'm going to try to beg off overnight observation.
I need to take care of the house and my animals.

You've made your stance pretty clear: I'm just crazy, and I'm on my own.
I'll make my decisions accordingly.
