My phone rang at 2:34am. I assumed it was Mollie, as she doesn't sleep most nights because of her job. It was my older sister Janice; she never calls me this late/early. She just got a call from our mother. Our grandparents barn is gone. Burnt to the ground. No one knows how it started; possibly electrical, which I could believe. I'd go out there now, but the road is blocked off, and I'm not sure they'd let me through. I'll probably go tomorrow. I never intended to go in that barn again, but when I was little I had such great times in there. I sang Kilroy Was Here with Box in there. I led the infamous Water War. Oh, and I had lots of sex. And it's gone now. I'm oddly numb to that. I don't think I'll miss the inside, so much as that space not being taken up.
