I'm good. Let's roll.

This past week, I have been walking around in a fog. My mind has been  completely blank and I've had no type of emotion since last Tuesday (11/13). Yesterday, was the first day that I actually got mad and felt anything. For those who know me, this is unusual. Thus the question of why arises.

My uncle, Brett Hartman, has been on Death Row for the past twelve years. On Tuesday, November 13th of 2012 at 10 am on Eastern Standard Time he was executed. I know in my heart and soul that Uncle Brett was innocent. He did not commit the crime.

So, as you can imagine, it was a hard week. I've always been against the Death Penalty. It is not right. It is not our place to take someone from this world.

I hardly ever get home sick but this past week...I just wanted to be around my family. I wanted to be there to support them during this difficult time. Luckily, I have a great support system of friends and family here on the East coast. My roommate/suite-mate made life bearable this week, so I thank her.

Brett's last words: "I'm good. Let's roll."
On a happier note, Thanksgiving break is here!!!! I am going to my aunt's house as I won't go home to the southwest until Christmas. I cannot wait to be home! I have missed my family and friends so much this year, it is ridiculous.

My family has a tradition of not playing any xmas music until after Thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving Day, after dinner, we watch the first Christmas movie of the season. Some of the conteders are:
