I know you are leaving, but it hasn't hit me yet. I keep telling myself that the sooner you go, the sooner you will be back. And with all the training over the last half a year, you have been coming and going often.
But I have the feeling it is going to suddenly hit me--hard. Most likely it will be when I realize I haven't talked to you in awhile. Then it will hit me that it is going to be a long time before I hear your voice again when I answer the phone.
(And your phone calls are legendary...remember the time we talked as you drove the whole way from one job in Rhode Island to the next one in Maine? That still makes me laugh.)
Stay safe, little brother, stay safe.
