I could post about the memorial service today, but I'm too drained of the emotions that spilled forth to bother. It's easier now not to dwell upon how I cried and sniffled my way through a truly happy service. Happy in the sense that we all got to admit aloud how much we loved this friend, and I got to learn more about her than I ever had before. I drank a Jack and coke in her honor (she loved Jack Daniels), and my mom had a glass of port. We were together and friendly with each other after the service, which she would have hated, but which, and this was the wonderful part about her, she told her son to go ahead and have if he needed it. The service was for those who needed it, who needed to feel as if we said goodbye real and proper-like. It was closure and it was good to have.

Nothing more to add save that my mother took a lamp from this lady's home (with son's permission, of course) that is truly hideous. This friend would be tickled by that, and that's what matters.

And here's a meme because I can't write any more without breaking down into tears (it's already getting blurry here) and I don't have tissues handy:

iTunes meme -- Gakked from saikogrrl:

Sort by time:
shortest: Kenshin - Oro (0:00)
longest: Arlo Guthrie - Alice's Restaurant (the actual longest shouldn't count because it's burned off a song with a hidden track 11 minutes after the song ends, so this is the longest continuous entry)

Sort by album:
first: 'Hours...' - David Bowie
last: Zooropa - U2

Megadeth songs shouldn't come up when you search for "death".

I'll have to fix that in iTunes. I only have the one anyway.

I really fell in love with that one and "We Used to be Friends" in Australia. It's so much fun, just bops along.

You are my favorite penguin-y friend!

The irony of that comment was made funnier by the fact that there were dancing penguins next to the email trying to get me to lower the morgage on my home....*blink*...sometimes pop ups add comic value. Although I must admit this was a first.

but it make me smile :)
