why now?

The wake was tonight, everything was fine...Paw-Paw handled himself very well, he looked exhausted though (for obvious reasons). After the wake we went to my aunt's house to eat dinner. At around 1045 Paw-Paw left to go home (his house is next door). He walks out the back steps and trips when he stepped off the sidewalk onto the grass, of course he fell in the direction of the bird bath. He ends up fracturing his cheekbone and has a few stitches and some swelling. Overall, he's okay, he handles these kinda things very well, but I think he's more embarassed about the fall than anything. He's well enough to attend the funeral so thats good. Dad just got home from the hospital and I'm heading to bed. Once again, thank you all for your prayers and concern, I know that I along with my entire family apprectiate them greatly.

On a lighter note I talked to Helen today...I got to spend the weekend with her at Mardi Gras in Nola. Turns out that she's really cool and appears to be dating material, after all she quit smoking when she found out that I'm not attracted to girls that smoke. We'll have to see how everything goes when I get back to Baton Rouge. Also, I think I'm going to begin to post again more often. I know lately I've been lax in doing so and just reading others LJ entries but I've forgotten how much just writing something out that you are thinking about can really help a situation. I need some sleep, I have to be up at 730ish.

By the way: I want to see James Taylor at JazzFest. And if possible DMB the next weekend, If i have money/time.
