Thanks everyone for your words yesterday.

The funeral is tomorrow, in Clinton, Kentucky, so [livejournal.com profile] ink_ling and I will be driving to my parents house early tomorrow morning, and then going from there up to Clinton.

A bunch of people are coming in from around the country -- my brother, sister, and uncles and aunts. It's been a few years since everyone's been in one place.

After working in corporate environments with all their procedures and paperwork, I'm pleasantly surprised by the response of the office. I left early yesterday, got in late today, and when I told the office manager I wouldn't be here tomorrow the senior partner (who was also present) immediately offered to go ahead and draw up my paycheck for this week. No paper, no attendance points, just "Okay. I'll be out tomorrow also, so I'll go ahead and draw your check. What time are you leaving today so I can figure your hours?"

Since the funderal is now instead of later, I'll still be going to Beltaine. Thank gods for that.

On my walk to work today I saw: one robin egg, a watch band, a plastic bag that looked like it used to contain weed, and some spilled potpourri.

I have had four funerals in the last year or so. It takes ages to recover.

Hey Budro! I'll be coming home before meeting up with Beth tonight, so I'll see you a little after 5, ok? Hope the day travels well!
