Sumo-Sized Love

This is a stress...well, it's not a stress ball, so...

This is a stress sumo wrestler that a cousin of ours gave to Brother Spatial. Spatial and laughing now display it with some family pictures beside the television. It's so very them.

My brother is eight years older than me, so I was only ten years old when he left for college, a college that was three hours away. It was always exciting to go visit him at his dorm or his apartment. It was fun for many reasons: his friends, a new town, all that jazz. But the places that he's lived have always been so neat! So full of character, so full of things like this! Hehe.

Laughing and Spatial have invited me to stay with them for a few days, coming close to a week. It means a lot to me to be out of town right now, so I appreciate their hospitality very much. Washing the dishes and vacuuming just doesn't seem like enough to thank them. Perhaps a tap dance in their honor...
