For whatever reason, today has been a day of missing my family. My parents and brother are all far away. For no particular reason I feel sad today that they are gone. It's funny how things like that will hit you at random times. I wish I could go to lunch and go shopping with my mom. I wish I could see my brother, his wife and kids and hang out with them. I wish my family were a little bit closer than several thousand miles away. I'm throwing myself a little pity party today.
