An Open Letter to My Friends and Family

Dear Loved Ones,

I know I have seemed a bit different lately. You must have noticed it, because a change like this doesn't happen gradually. It has only been a matter of a couple of months, though for some of you it may seem longer. A distraction here, a bit of inattention there, a casual remark that seems out of character. I want you to know I can't help it, and ask you to bear with me while I see this thing through. I expect it to be behind me a couple of months from now.

You have to understand that the foundation for this has been laid my entire life. From the time I was a little girl, I knew this might happen someday. Honestly, I didn't think it would take this long, or that I'd be this old when it did. I guess if I'm honest with myself, I've been anticipating it all along. I knew I'd be affected by it, but I guess even I didn't realize to what extent.

Certain days are worse than others. I'm getting through work days fine, but the weekends are tough. Saturdays... well, just forget about it! I'm just asking all of you who love me to bear with me, and support me, and forgive me if I forget myself at times.

But it's just not every year the Auburn Tigers make a run for the NCAA football championship!

WAR EAGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
