But before Paula goes, let us remember her greatest recipe.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I have my vacation blocked off for that week, too.

We need to do something about that.

My motorcycle-riding Uncle Frank died about an hour ago. [link] [link] I don't think I'd mentioned it here, but he developed pneumonia and was hospitalized about a week ago, congestive heart failure and they moved him to Denver, then they found a mass in his lung and it became clear he wasn't doing more than hospice. I don't think they even got that far.
His kids made it out there, as was another of the cousins.
I'm glad it was quick, but damned it. I wish he'd had one more trip. Even with all the other unrelated medical crises this past year, he seemed bulletproof. I don't want to say anything on fb yet so that my other cousins can hear through more personal channels.
I'm going to miss his dry weird humor. My poor Aunt Sue.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
sarameg, I'm so sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh sara, I'm sorry.

Thanks. I'm more philosophical about it than anything. Sure, sad, but oddly accepting.
