'Tis a long time indeed. I strangely never thought I'd stay around.

I'm not leaving my room today. I've been banned from downloading music (shared laptop right now because mine's still fried and I'm too lazy to fix it) so I'm currently rejoicing that Spotify has added a bunch of live Phish. Seriously - I will not leave my room today.
Added all the Phish to a playlist, and it claims to be six days of Phish - and I leave for Terrapin in six days, so maybe I'll just stay in here until then.

I'm going soon to a memorial service for the father of a childhood friend. On Monday I was at the cemetary and saw his casket, the kiss of his wife pressed upon it, the final touch of his daughter's hand brushing its surface one last time because the desire to be close to a loved-one is still there, even when closeness becomes an impossibility.
I am reminded of how I don't like funerals, weddings, or religious services in general, because I don't like life being scripted. I'd much rather mourn for someone in a private, personal setting, not sandwiched into a time slot, not overlaid with palliative (and to me often empty) words; I'd rather see people married without any script they follow as if life were a play. Therefore today I'm thinking more about the stage of life when one is living while dying, and I am feeling fear about my own loved-one having to face that. Later today, though, I get to volunteer at an elementary school where I'll help kids with reading. That should be fun.
