I tried to be REALLY strong at the Pocatello airport for his family, who were all in tears. I tried to be strong..

When he finally boarded the plane and left, it still felt unreal. I went with his family to Apple Bee's. It was fun and pretty good. I just felt like we were all avoiding the fact that we wouldn't see Spencer for 2 years.
I drove his grandma and sister home and kept strong.
I got home and went into my room..and wasn't so strong anymore.
You can usually tell my mood by my smile. Well this is as fake as it comes, folks!

Still surreal. I mean, we're being punk'd, right? He'll be home soon...right?
