How the hell is a sports announcer not familiar with that song?
Ha! That's ridiculous. But a good question.
Man, just ascend already.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I need a clue. How is the song connected to sports?

Our wings are not tired.
I told ltc that she can talk to Papa in heaven whenever she misses him, and I keep hearing her talk to him and it’s heartbreakingly sweet. I have good kid.
{{ltc}} It sounds like you are doing a great job helping her process this transition.

I promised Papa before he died that we’d all be okay. So I’m taking my meds and eating food, but I definitely don’t feel okay today.

There's not a direct connection like with "Centerfield," I just hear it played a lot at events.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
It's okay not to be okay all the time, sj. Keep taking care of yourself.
I can imagine hearing Barracuda al the time and not knowing what it is - they mostly just play that guitar riff, don't they? Doesn't sound at all like Santana, though.

TCG came home and fed me lunch and I’m going to get Chinese food with Thessaly tomorrow. So, other people are taking care of me too. ltc came running out of her room last night with a stuffed animal for me to hold when she heard me crying. I thought she was asleep and then felt guilty that she felt she had to comfort me.

Children are allowed to support their parents. Parents are allowed to cry.
Both of my parents cried in my arms when their fathers died.

Intellectually I know that but emotionally I know she’s dealing with so much of her own grief and I want her to feel that everything here is safe and stable for her.

I'm so sorry for your loss, sj, and I'm glad you and your people, including your amazing and empathetic child, are taking care of you... and each other.
