I had some visitors here last week–the first of a few this summer–which was a pretty good time. My parents, my aunt Anita, my little sister Kyla, and both my dogs (Widget & Bluto) made the drive out here. That’s no small task, either, as I believe the drive is something like 2000 miles.
Long story short, Rock Band fun was had by all. :) We also made an ill-fated attempt to go check out Mt. Rainier that basically involved us driving around staring at the clouds, haha. One thing people like to say about this area is that it rains all the time, but that’s just not true. Honestly, it really doesn’t rain that much, but it is cloudy damn near every day.
Anyway, I realized while they were here that my biggest “regret” (for lack of a better word) in living so far away from my family is missing my little sister grow up. Realistically, I can’t expect to see her more than once or twice a year, and that’s pretty disappointing considering how much she’ll likely change between visits. When I see her now, she’s always interested in what I’m doing and wanting to play games with me, but I’m sure it’s only a matter before all that starts to change.
I suppose for the time being about all I can do is try to head home for holidays and such as often as possible.
