Where to start... Last night my family and I had a fire out on the patio my dad made this summer. It was a perfect last night all together. My sister leaves for California tomorrow, until December. We're twins so it is definitely going to be a difficult process learning that she will not be just a few steps away. The most we've been away from each other has been a week-ish, maybe two weeks. So this is definitely gonna be something new! I do not think it will be a bad thing for either of us though. I am beyond excited for her to have new and exciting experiences, all with her husband in their first home together. Jade and I will not be close (in distance) forever and I guess this is just the beginning. Luckily for technology we can stay close and talk all the time, if we wanted of course! I have my sad moments every once and a while now but I know when she leaves tomorrow it will hit me, and it will be a while until I'm used to her absence.
But back to what I did last night. After the fire I went into my room thinking I would go to bed around 10:30pm. Yeah... That did not happen. I fell asleep at 11:30 and was woken up less than an hour later by my boyfriend calling. Needless to say I lost about 2 hours of sleep that I was planning on getting just by not going to sleep right away and by the phone call. However, I am up and at 'em already this morning, having my cup of coffee, and preparing for work 11-8pm :(! It is my last shift of the summer so I definitely think I will make it through! It is also raining so, although it is Labor day weekend I think I'm in for another normal shift, rather than a busy one which is super exciting.
I was never close to my brothers, much less a twin, so I can't imagine what that might be like for you. I do miss dogs I've had--does that count? Probably not. As you say, technology makes a difference.
