March Madness. . . and I don't mean basketball! As a writer, I'm frustrated that I cannot even articulate into words the depths of my emotions right now. With so much happening to me, and around me, I feel as if I'm stuck on a ferris-wheel that some sadistic carney worker keeps turning up the speed faster, and faster, and . . . I was allowed to go through a security clearance to receive a pass yesterday to gain access to the gate boarding area to watch someone very close to me leave for Iraq. I watched as he boarded the plane that would take him, first to Gulfport, Mississippi (he was originally scheduled to deploy with his battalion on 02/14 - you can read the story of his battalion in the Chattanoogan, but he was then told he wasn't going due to a blown ACL and surgery last year and, once again, the story changed, and he was merely delayed until 03/07). In about three weeks from now, he will travel on overseas. He will be gone until, at least, mid-November. With everything else that has been happening lately, this may be the proverbial "s-t-r-a-w." No one ever said life was easy . . . but, . . . it would be nice if the hard parts were spaced a little farther apart!
