First all the cool stuff came over the weekend and today, I got a book I was really looking forward to (On healing touch), the sheets and mattress pad got here (thank you UPS for leaving it on the door and NOT ringing and the touch of you pausing your cell phone call long enough to ask 'you ARE D-3, right?' was perfect) and of course the bed and MATTRESS!

Yay! It's soft. I can't wait to sleep on it. (pictures coming tomorrow)It does take up a little too much of the room (that's okay), it's pretty. It even has four posters (now to find the man to tie to it) Whee!

Downsides - while I got the old bed rails unscrewed (I believe women should have their own tools and have stocked the house accordingly) I don't have the strength to bull them apart. Gah! I need to get this down. Even if I were just hauling them to the dumpster, this is unwieldy. But I want to take them to Goodwil (they're in perfect shape)grrrr. Maybe I can drag it onto the porch when the neighbor men are out there and they can help.

Gave my first exam today and of course in their infinite wisdom campus computing removed the drive we use to run the scantron software...um dudes WHY? I mean just WHY? for the love of god, we need that. Supposedly things will be fixed by tomorrow. I Hope so. I'm giving another exam on Wednesday.

Author’s Note – Thanks to evil_little_dog for the beta. This is one story in a series but is a stand alone. This series was started long before the lovely Ishbal arc so it’s AU for the Mustang and Hawkeye history and there is no real way around that I’m afraid. Also, the Ravensdales are original characters that have small recurring roles in the series. The other stories in this series are Roots of Violence

Ashes and Bone
Why They Call it Falling
Point of Fracture
With Silence

And ever has it been known that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation. - Kahlil Gibran

Paul Perrette from NCIS, the fabulous Abby, was on the season premiere of America's Most Wanted (21 years and I almost never miss it). I think I would like this woman if I were to ever meet her. She has the same house rules i do for AMW. You do NOT call me when it's on and if you're in my house, you sit on the couch and watch it quietly.

Anyhow, she wanted to be a detective when she grew up and having watched the show with her boyfriend (from Detriot) they say two child murders, one in detroit from close to where he's from and one in the south right next to her home town so she decided to get involved. They took her to the crime scenes, using her popularity as a vehicle to revisit these murders and she's offering 10K in award money for each case. I think that's kinda cool (if you're interested in the cases go to amw.com

there was more I planned on saying but my brain is soft and oozing out my ears
