Rest in peace, L.C.
First things first, before I get things off my chest. Second chapter is officially up! Thank god for that. I actually didn't work to much on it until this weekend and, before I knew it, it was done. I have been pissed off by the amount of Eddy-bashing I have been hearing of lately. So, as penance, I have been jotting down in my mind why Eddy is a good person from each ep I have on tape. Maybe I'll post it someday. He is too cute.
I am now color-coding my posts for some odd reason. I think it's Ghost and Dart's faults. They have converted me to their nefarious ways! Run away! *ahem* Anyway, went to a funeral Monday. I felt at first that I was a heartless bitch because I didn't cry upon hearing the news. Boy, was I wrong! Upon arriving, I immediately broke into tears upon seeing her in a casket all made up. I was worse then my mom, and she was my mom's best friend.
She was too young for this to have happened to her. Pserosis of the liver at 37 due to habitual drinking and smoking. How's that for a Truth commercial? I apologize for being so morbid, but it was awful. My mom believed she knew she was going to die, but never called my mom to tell her. Her youngest, 17, was in pieces. He went to California becuase of her wishes to attend a school she held dear there. And coming home to find out his mother was dead over an answering machine.
I think the final straw for me was the lowering of the casket. I was surprised at how strong my mother was. She only really broke down afterwords. We were even thinking of taking her youngest home to live with us since he's having such a bad time.
Well, that's my spiel. I had to let it out somewhere. She was a wonderful person and a caring mother. Many people came to her funeral and many people made some final statements about her. She was gone too soon and I know she is in heaven now and is at peace. I believe she will try to visit my mother, since they were so close. All I can say is: So long, L.C. I know I will see you soon.

'If I saw you in Heaven' Eric Clapton
Would you know my name
if I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
if I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong
and carry on
'cause I know I don't belong here in heaven.
Would you hold my hand
if I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand
if I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way through night and day
'cause I know I just can't stay here in heaven.
Time can bring you down
time can bend your knees
time can break your heart
have you beggin' please
beggin' please.
Beyond the door, there's peace I'm sure
and I know there'll be no more tears in heaven.
Would you know my name
if I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
if I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong
and carry on
'cause i know i don't belong here in heaven.
'cause i know i don't belong here in heaven.
