I don't think she's being over dramatic at all. She's lost her passion because of a series of failures of finding real paranormal activity. This is a big deal. I'm not sure what 'special way' she's referring to. Of course, if it's a characteristic of hers to feel critical of herself, or thinking she over reacts to things, ect, then never mind and I hope that it's played with in the future.
Then again, I was being over dramatic in my own special way.
Saying 'their' home seems personal. On another note, this is a very long run on sentence with one or two unnecessary commas.
I looked down at the letter asking for us to come to their home once again,
I like this as well, it sticks out and catches attention, but what comes after seems a little odd. I would think the name would have more nostalgia, fondness, or anything based on the memories around it even if negative, but instead you lead into how it's the destruction of the team?
My eyes lingered on the name. That name meant something to me.
I like these two sentences a lot too, but I would like it even more if it was played a little for laughs. The mental image amuses me, but it's stated so factually that the fun feels sucked out of it.
