Ah Wednesday...

I'm going home this weekend to visit my little brother before he goes back to Germany and the Army.

What can I tell you about The Boy? Well, for the past 16 months he's been over in Bagdhad Defending the Universe. People ask me all the time if I support the war. I tell them I do. Because well, The Boy believes in it. It's his job. And ultimately, I think we're moving in the right direction. I don't hold wildly popular opinions on this topic, and it makes for lots of arguments...so I TRY not to talk about it. But, I'm proud of The Boy. He's one of the most honorable, kind people I know. And he is one of my heroes. I miss him when he's gone.

"I'm not in the mood." She said to no one in particular. For anything. So she made some hot chocolate.

Is it fall? I'm not ready. I'm not ready to put on clothes and shoes and socks and coats. I'm not ready to see the trees, my sisters, change their colors and go to sleep. I'm not ready for the turn of the Wheel. So, how 'bout some warm damn weather. That's all I'm sayin'.
