i wasn't going to go to the funeral..coz i didn't think i'd be up to it. but bright and early ms alison came a knockin on my door, and i got the guilts up so i had the quickest shower in the history of showers, and i went..

amazingly, it didn't affect me at all how i thought it would. mind you, i spent the entire service alternating between staring at a wooden beam in front of me, and looking at the back of schnooochums' head..
schnooochums held up much better than i thought she would have. had it been me, i would have been a blubbering mess..but she wasn't...she was strong...which was good, coz i'm sure had she come near me and broke down, is would have broken down too...so yeah...
it was a long day, though..after the service everyone went back to the RSL club and got totally wasted. i was going to have a few drinks, but kinda worried that if i did i would start getting all sooky and emotional, and i really didnt wanna have to do that in front of all the others...but yeah...

this weekend has been good...after a whole 4 days away from the grrl, i've certainly enjoyed just spending time with her. we went to the movies yesterday morning, and moomba last nite, and today we're just lazing around the house like we normally do on sundays, and it's absolutely wonderful...
whenever someone dies, it reminds me just how precious our time here on earth is, and how important it is that we make the most of the time we have..and i certainly want to make the most of my time with the grrl...
tomorrow is labour day...and although it's a public holiday, i still have 4 hours of classes...but i'm not gonna go...i'm gonna stay and have one more sleep in with sam before i have to head back to 4 days away from her.
