Sometimes, I just feel like yelling that question to the world when I feel that it is conquering me. Or to be honest, when I am sometimes just bored. Since being married, no one has really answered this call. Lester just is to sweet to really fight me. But growing up, I was always wrestling with my Dad or Uncles and I have missed that. I never thought I would say this, but I even miss dead weight sometimes, where my crazy Dad would flatten us like pancakes, with us gasping for air begging for mercy. Now that I am home, I don't have to miss things like that, even though my Dad is out of town. You know why?
Because Luke and his friend Andrew Porter answer this call. Like every morning when Lester and I have slept in WAY too late, and they come barreling down the stairs to tackle us. Luckily we can fight back with our own fancy weapons like 'morning stink' and the many lightsabers they have strewn across the house. In fact, just the other day Andrew had fashioned an old broken dart board to carboard arm slots, in order to construct a shield. He used it as he shot his nerf gun at me, and I lunged with my yard stick and the moves I'd just learned on the Wii.
I realize to most people, this may sound silly, but this along with a million other strange things that nobody else would understand, make coming home so wonderful! I just love being here.
