Ain’t No Pain Like This

I am still swamped and will be until later this week.

But I just have to say this:

Carrie (our oldest), just left for college.

I watched from the middle of the street as the van turned the corner.

And wept. Tears of sorrow and joy at the same time. It’s awful and wonderful and crazy-making.

More later. (I have a fair amount to say about this, as you can imagine.)

    Holy Crap! Look at all this STUFF down here. It's awesome!

     

    Really, I'm glad you made it down here. Almost no one ever comes down here. I'm like in a freaking dungeon down here. I get lonely. But not you. YOU made it all the way to the end of the page. For this I think I've a little crush on you. I don't know, is "love" to strong a word to use in this situation? Well, if it's not "love," then it's very strong "like." I'm totally in like with you for coming down here. You are awesome. Please love me back! I know, I know, I shouldn't be all needy, it's not attractive at all, but you don't know how it is to be stuck down here. Who scrolls all the way to the end of a page anymore these days? Anyway, thanks for shedding some light down here in the depths. I appreciate it. Shoot me an email and I'll send you a dollar, OK?
