Bill died Saturday morning three weeks ago. Or Friday night. Apparently it was hard to get a handle on what happened. I couldn't really get my mind around it.Do I go back? Is that too over the top? Grandma is ok, I guess. She doesn't talk with us kids much anymore, and mom is fine. She keeps saying that 2009 will be better, but Grandma Garcia went to the hospital last week now. I never really realized that when I went back to see my family, there'd be less family to see.

Am I just nostalgic? Were we never really so tight knit as I remember? People always told me families like that don't exist, so am I crazy or has everyone else finally gotten to have their vote count.

People like to make fun that when I'm upset or feeling out of it, I just hole up and play WoW anymore. It's not true, sadly. I can't get my head right, I don't want to talk to anyone, and I'll be quite frank in the fact that yes I'm trying to avoid my life for the past few weeks. So I worked most of the weekend. Stayed late yesterday, stayed late today, took work home tonight, going in early tomorrow. I can't care about the audit that I'm responsible for this week, but I can't not care about what I'm going to have to do when I, the Stupid Forms Guy, don't have anymore stupid forms to take up my time.

death, family
