This is Today
My grandmother (Dad's Mom) died this morning about 9 o'clock. My uncle Jim, whom I'm named after, called to tell my Dad and my Dad called to tell me.
We were going to leave later today to go see her perhaps for the last time. My Dad and Mom were gonna go next weekend too to see her if she were still around and pick me up at my friend LaDonna's on the way home.
Now my Dad wants to leave to go up there earlier. And right now i'm just pissed off a little bit that he didn't get to see her one last time. That he was less than a day late to see her. I'm really pissed because I know this kind of thing tends to bread guilt like nothing else. And while i'm not really close with my Dad, and almost not at all with my grandmother, I do love my Dad and hate that he's gonna go through a slightly worse, if not much worse, amount of grief over this.
I got to go...
Perhaps more later...
