PRISON UPDATE!!!
Hello All

--Sunday, April 1st has a little bearing on me today. A few years ago today, my grandfather died... and I sit here thinking about what he would think of me now... in his eyes, would I be the strong youngman I am sure he hoped I'd be? or would I fit the description of a misguided youth striving to find a path clouded by bad decisions? Or, would I be a good soul, plagued by bad decisions, but still the man he knew I would become? All of those questions can't ever be answered... but still, I wonder.

--I had a visit today from my girlfriend and my parents (and the kids)... and it was wonderful... they came at about 11ish, and stayed til almost 2 (the kids were pretty tired). It was a good visit... but that lonely walk back to my unit is the worst. It envelops everything about you... from the good times you once had, to the bad times ahead... it reinforces the fact that no matter who you know, you are always alone.

--Also, I got a new roommate (bunkmate)... he is a festively plump Spanish man, who happens to be the worlds loudest snorer... now let me give you a vivid image of how loud this man is: Its a bright sunny morning... birds singing, water from the stream is rushing against the banks, and a chubby Spanish fellow is happily sleeping in the bottom bunk, in a bed located in a small federal prison... now his roommate on the top bunk, lies sleepily above him, focusing on his quest for slumber... but his quest is never fulfilled... his dream of a night of botherless sleep has been shattered by the rumbling sound of his plump friends ear piercing snores... a rumbling compared to that of a passing train or the take off a jetplane right as it begins its groundless journey... the sounds of hell to a tired man.

--Other than all of that... there is nothing new to report. I just wait for the end of my 3 and a half month stay here... wishing that each day could inch by faster and faster.

Keep me in your thoughts everyone,
Scott
