Shorty...

Eating a Greek salad at 2:30 AM. Watched my brother John beat Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2. Made him fight Darth Vader a second time because he picked Dark Side ending the first time and I wanted the happier Light Side ending. Realized I hadn't posted my blog and so I figured I'd atleast make this shorty update.
Most importantly: I got  a call from Erik finally tonight. It was so nice to hear his voice. One phone call from him can make the entire time he's gone melt away and seem so much shorter.
A negative though:  His hip muscle, we knew, is torn. He's been doing physical therapy for it and has been on profile. (He wasn't really supposed to go to JRTC but they had him go anyway.) And now an officer there examined him and its worse then they thought. His cartilage is torn so he is scheduled for MRI's & X-rays when he gets home so that it can be examined. There is a 90% chance he'll be needing hip surgery to fix it and not only is that very painful but it also has a long recuperation time. I'll be right by his side for all of it.
Going to go finish my salad now.
