Scout and I hopped in the car yesterday and drove on up to Illinois. My brother is back home for a few days before heading back to Iraq, so I figured it would be a good idea to come see him. Scout came along because I’m pretty sure Kecia would kill me if I didn’t [...]

Today marks the start of a momentous occasion: my return to normal-people work hours. It happened a week early, which is good and bad. On the plus side, it’s one less week of zombie hours.
