Midnight Ramble

Today was an interesting day. In large, even fairly large, groups of people, I like to sit back and observe the actions and conversations. You can really learn alot about people that way. And today was a great opportunity to do that.
It was also the first time in a while that I spent an entire day at home. I got to see my sister for the first time in about two weeks. SInce she's living at school now I rarely see her. I miss spending time with her like I used to, even though sometimes she could drive me up a wall. I miss our late night talks and knowing she's just a few steps away. I really could have done without my brothers today, though, lol. It seems like every 5 minutes they are in some argument about some petty thing and, boy, does that want to make you scream. I now realize why my mom was always so frustrated when my sisters and I were always arguing. I'll never forget the very rare couple of times that she finally got so frustrated that she finally said, "You want to fight each other!? Fine! Go ahead, go at it and let me know when your done!" And all we could do was laugh. Sometimes I miss being that young, when everything is as simple as having mom break up the fights, put band-aids on the wounds, and take care of everything else.
Childhood is a silly thing. We are so anxcious as children to become adults and when we finally get there we crave our childhood. We hate naps and quiet time as children and as adults what we wouldn't do for those five quiet minutes in the corner and that half hour nap. For me, alot of the time, its the fine quiet minutes ALONE in the corner that I crave. LOL. Not just childhood, but life is just silly that way.

End of ramble. Goodnight.
