The Visit
Well, I'm taking tomorrow off. Not the entire day, as I'll be doing some work from home, but I’ll at least be getting some rest for my brain after an extensive week of learning and programming ASP.NET.
The main reason is that Michael's probation officer is coming by tomorrow at 9:30am to make sure that it’s going to be an appropriate place for him to stay. I wondered if I had been Michael's wife whether this would be a requisite, but I understand that it’s strictly routine. I'm not sure exactly what to do to straighten up, but my clutter is a clear indication that I certainly need him around here. But it hasn't even gotten too badly cluttered up since New Year's. It should just be a simple matter of getting some of the stains and smells from my poor cat Joplin's presents in the living room
I am curious as to why they're doing this so soon, though. Michael is not scheduled to be released until October—it seems odd that they would be checking the home this soon. Unless the government has decided to get smart and have decided to reduce the prison population, and Michael will be home early? I dare not hope! I can always pray about it, however.
Otherwise, I’m still suffering from a minor cold, aggravated by my toothache. I mainly feel somewhat crappy, but more secure than I’ve been in recent months, work-wise and financially.
Good things are coming.

Cary, the recent Supreme Court decision put a major kink in the Federal Sentencing system. It may well shorten some sentences.

Hopefully that is the case with your pal in prison. Good luck!! Aaron.
