A few words
"When we describe the Moon as dead, we are describing the deadness in ourselves. When we find space so hideously void, we are describing our own unbearable emptiness." ~ D.H. Lawrence "Is the meaning of life defined by its duration? Or does life have a purpose so large that it doesn't have to be prolonged at any cost to preserve its meaning?" "Living is not good, but living well. The wise man, therefore, lives as well as he should, not as long as he can... He will always think of life in terms of quality not quantity... Dying early or late is of no relevance, dying well or ill is... even if it is true that while there is life there is hope, life is not to be bought at any cost." ~ Seneca "People will tell you nothing matters, the whole world's about to end soon anyway. Those people are looking at life the wrong way. I mean, things don't need to last forever to be perfect." ~ Daydream Nation "All Bette's stories have happy endings. That's because she knows where to stop. She's realized the real problem with stories-- if you keep them going long enough, they always end in death." ~ The Sandman: Preludes & Nocturnes "The road now stretched across open country, and it occurred to me - not by way of protest, not as a symbol, or anything like that, but merely as a novel experience - that since I had disregarded all laws of humanity, I might as well disregard the rules of traffic. So I crossed to the left side of the highway and checked the feeling, and the feeling was good. It was a pleasant diaphragmal melting, with elements of diffused tactility, all this enhanced by the thought that nothing could be nearer to the elimination of basic physical laws than deliberately driving on the wrong site of the road." ~ Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita "It is easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend." ~ William Blake   Think about it Musicalities! Kill that boredom!

Jhonen Vasquez's site Overheard in New York Passive Aggressive Notes Submarinechannel.com Superdickery UHpinions Whirled | A funeral, a birthday, and Zippy's Saturday, March 24, 2012 I went to my grandma's funeral today. Wasn't going to cry, didn't even really feel that sad, but my cousin (she's only eight I think) started bawling when we were about to take the casket to be buried, and it got to me. I didn't break down or anything, I mean. Just a couple tears that escaped. It's also my dad's birthday, so we went to Zippy's for dinner. Zippy's is a popular fast food restaurant here in Hawaii, but I guess they also have a slightly more upscale sit-down restaurant next to the normal fast food style one in Koko Marina, so we went there instead. It's kind of weird, you know, about open-casket funerals. It always looks like the person is just sleeping. That's what I feel like, anyway. My grandpa's funeral was open-casket too and he looked like he was just taking a nap in a box. They put a lot of makeup on my grandma's hands, though, and it made her look a bit odd. Almost fake, I guess. Like she wasn't a real person. Otherwise, yeah, she just looked asleep, except that her mouth was closed and she wasn't snoring. Tomorrow is my boyfriend's birthday, but since I'm in Hawaii, I can't spend it with him. I really want to get him something nice, but every time I ask him what he wants for his birthday he just says "you, I want you." I can't see him until after my finals are through (which should be next weekend), so hopefully I can figure out something good to give him before then. Haven't really got much else to say. See ya round I guess. 6 Comments. Ermm... get him something from Hawaii that isn't a tacky souvenir? » Nuttz on 2012-03-25 07:07:44 Sorry about your grandma. My grandmother's funeral was open casket also. It's strange that they are right there, but they aren't. All the best. » thaitanic on 2012-03-26 02:40:30 Funerals, bah. Dave's dad looked like he was going to get up out of the casket. It was odd. Dave's grandma had to have her head shaved for surgery, so his aunt picked out a wig for her. It wasn't a good choice at all. I never know what to do. They get a line of people to walk up to the coffin, and what, am I supposed to say something? "Ah, sorry 'bout all that, then" (best said with a Bri-ish accent, perhaps). I'm not Catholic, so the body-crosses just seem awkard. » ikimashokie on 2012-03-27 08:51:51 wow... this sounds like an intense day. I don't know if you follow astrology at all, but Mercury is in retrograde, and will be coming out on the fourth of April, which will hopefully make things easier. :) » hellasamira on 2012-03-27 10:28:05 I remember my Dad looked like he was sleeping. I even felt like I could see him breathing. I had a friend who passed and his make up job was done horribly. You could still see where the rope cut in to his neck. I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother's passing. Ah, birthdays. Jacob's birthday was on the 24th. He wouldn't let me tell anyone, but I don't think he'll care now that it's over. That and he doesn't know you lol. » LostSoul13 on 2012-03-28 03:02:07 You should definitely get him a tacky souvenir from Hawaii. Or a craaaaAAzy Hawaiian shirt. » Zanzibar on 2012-04-01 06:52:08
