Before I left home, Ruby gave me a birthday present. It was a big yellow envelope, and she explained that inside were five more envelopes. They are for one homesick night each month I am here.
Well I just got back in, and had a twinge of homesickness. You see, I was sheeting my bed and all the sudden really missed my mom. When my mom sheets the beds at home, she leaves the corner down so that that night you can just hop right in. Without thinking I folded the corner back as well :)
I thought it'd be a good envelope moment. I was happy to find an index card with an inside joke written on it and five dollar bills. Guess it'll be a little while til I use that, eh?
I love Ruby.
I love Mom.
Good night, all!
