one less grandparent [thinking]
my mom called me. her mom died. she's flying back to japan for a couple weeks. another grandparent gone this year. i only have one left. this is getting weird. i can't imagine life without grandparents. that would mean that my mom is the age of a grandparent but not actually a grandparent. i'm not ready for anyone to call me mommy. i have no such desire. well the good thing that's coming out of this is that someone will finally be able to bring back some stuff of mine at my uncle's house in japan. once she returns, i think i'll be the proud owner of every buck-tick vinyl ever produced, except for side projects of which there are 1 or 2 vinyls out there and too rare for me to ever dream of possessing.
