My roommate Kyle left for the MTC this afternoon. Tonight is his first night there. In fact, he's probably headed to bed right now. (What a difficult transition that must be for Kyle!) He would often stay up later than I did. And I'm sure the shock and loneliness could be there tonight as he lays in bed. Wow. Just thinking about all the transitions a teenager has to go through to become a missionary... it's mind boggling. But he will be there two months. People who have been there 4 weeks will seem like old timers to him. He'll be there Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years. It's like the group right before me in the MTC. I hope he has good teachers and does his best. I know he'll do very well as a missionary.
Here's to you Kyle!!

Here, here! to the Silly Pickle of silly pickles! Life will have lost a twinge of luster with Kyle away. He was like the obnoxious little brother I never had... *sniffle!*
Let me know if you get a letter from him, or anything with his exact address on it (I'm sure I can fudge it otherwise, but the exact thing would be nice). I'll need to know where to send him his slurpee (parcel post) muuhahaha!
Bob - We'll all miss our Kyle! He was a great roommate and (still) friend. Btw, I posted his MTC address on the ward website.
Brock - I'm flattered! If your book should become popular I will be sure to buy one and tell all my friends that BigRedHammer was loosely based on me. lol
