So, it’s NoJoMo… and you know what? I didn’t usedta need a special month to encourage my writing. I used to write ginormous entries nearly every day.

For YEARS.

But I’m older, busier, tirededer and… apparently more healed.

I went to my niece’s funeral this week, fully expecting the usual… and what I got instead was refreshing and real from most parties involved. Genuine discussions about silly things like thoughts, ideas and feelings took place. It was crazy stuff, I tell ya.

More on that in a bit. J will be here in a minute and today is his official birthday. YAY! When David was here last week he was kind enough to bestow $100 worth of GameStop joy in the form of a gift card (as well as 2000 Wii points) and today is also Day 1 (which means beef, cheese, milk and bread) so it promises to be a good time. I’ll need dry hair for that, which I don’t have currently.
