Where my peeps at?!I'm heading home for the weekend and this is the first time I have ever actually been excited to go home. I haven't lived at home for almost five years now and I have never been home sick until this week. Home is usually some where I go for the holidays and since I can talk to my family when ever I want, I never get to miss them. Nothing has really changed, but I guess it feels different because this is the first time in about four years that we can all be in the same place.
My dad came to visit me last weekend and as he leaving, I really didn't want him to leave and wanted to follow him, so that I could spend more time with him and the rest of my family. I hadn't seen my dad in over a year and it was kind of weird and a little sad to see that he is starting to get old. He had to hold the menu really far away to read it (he had forgotten his glasses) and he fell asleep right after lunch as we were sitting there enjoying the music (we were at a Canada Day festival). I still see my dad as some one who is full of an infinite amount of energy and I used to say that he didn't have any gray hairs (even though my older brother did), but that is not true now.
We spent the day just talking. Walking and talking and we talked about everything (well, almost everything. I am not ready to tell him everything just yet. I guess I am a little scared that I might lose him) and that reminded me of the different times in the past when we (just the two of us) would some how end up by ourselves and we would just go exploring or just sit and talk for the entire day. Those days are my favorite memories (I don't remember much else from when I was younger).
Anyways, I am sorry if that didn't make much sense, but I just had to get it out and wish happy birthday to my dad (he'll be 50 on sunday) and my little bro (14 on saturday), even though they will probably never see this.
Peace out!

p.s. I had written this much better before but blogger felt the need to delete it, but I guess such is life. I hope you all have a great weekend. Keep safe.

have fun at home...i hope its all you want it to be.
new SISTAcast up...finally. have a good week.
I did have a great weekend and my dad and brother seemed to enjoy themselves and all the attention.
It felt like a week because we did so much and now I can barely stay awake, but I wouldn't have it any other way.
Janeeey - Thanks and I am sure they would thank you too if they knew and would try to stuff you full with cake.
Oct - I was all I wanted it to be. I don't think we had all been this open to each other in a really long time and now we are closer than ever. I hope it's not another four years before we do this again.
