Buh-bye

I had something really clever I was planning on writing today, but now I can't remember what it was.

...I hate it when that happens.

Today was Emmelie's last day. Rye announced she would be gone after today, and I gave her a half-hug mostly-pat-on-the-back. Then after I took a step back, I decided maybe that wasn't dramatic enough, so I threw myself forward onto her and started sobbing hysterically and proclaiming that I couldn't live without her and she couldn't leave! She shoved me off and I threw myself around her knees and went on for a bit. But... I kind of missed and smashed my face against her knee. I think I gave her knee a concussion. And I bent my glasses. Daggumit.

It was the thought that counts, I guess :P

Do I detect a hint of sarcasm?

Is face-smashing on someone's knee a normal type of farewell in Alaska? I guess you learn something new every day.
