paul died. its finally just setting in now that he is dead.
its really to bad i really liked that fucker, kinda like loosing an uncle that was really close to you (i say this not knowing that feeling but assuming it would be very much like this)
paul pretty much built my dads house... or what it is today. it use to suck really bad but paul did almost all the reconstruction and all the wireing and such.
my dad met paul in AA and they became friends, this was my dads 1st non drinking/coke snorting friend. they hung out all the time, and then when my dad started to get the house fixed up paul told my dad that he would do it for a resonable price, which he did! and then the house was awsome! but having paul around all the time ment i hung out with him all the time which ment i grew accustomed to him and came to really enjoy his company. he is by far the oldest person to play halo with me! but it wasnt in the creepy nerdy sense of some old dude hanging out with a kid but in the family sense. hanging out with him was like hanging out with my dad, except paul didnt care if i smoked or swore, he was like the uncle that lets you get away with shite i always needed. he never talked down to me like a kidm he always was chill with me.
he died the other night of heart failure in his sleep, he was a recovering alcaholic who almost drank his liver to death and a chain smoker for all of his life. he was 54 and was the coolest fucking 54 year old at that
