Joseph:
agh burial is the most unsettling and terrifying ritual. especially at jewish funerals where part of the thing is that those in attendance help shovel the dirt on to the coffin. my arms went tingly like they'd fallen asleep and i really felt like i'd been punched in the gut.
kind of just want to drink a lot but i know that is a bad idea. also kind of wish i had longer in vancouver. i don't know if i'll be ready to leave by wednesday.
Jimor:
Condolences, Joseph. I don't know if this will help, everybody's reactions and needs in a situation like this is different, but if the standard service's ritual didn't give you what you need, feel free to perform your own however seems right to you. Anything at all, or nothing if that's what suits you. In any case, once again, sorry about your friend.
sean:
man i feel bad about what i bitched about joseph cause that is some real heavy shit and i'm sorry dude, condolences dude.
anyway, this is actually in sorta similar lines, but today i woke up to a text message from one of my friends saying that he was in the hospital. apparently he was riding his bike to class (which he just got back into rideable condition over spring break, the wheel got fucked up in the winter due to a snow plow and he was really stoked about actually riding it around) and he was going down a pretty steep hill and his hat flew off and i guess he broke really awkwardly and bailed out and landed on his leg, which got fucked up a year ago because some asshole hit him with their car (i didn't know him then but it was really fucked up, some asshole hit him in a crosswalk while he was going to class or whatever, and this incident happened maybe 30 feet from that crosswalk, what the fuck?) so he fucked up his leg really badly, its broken and he's going into surgery tomorrow. i feel goddamn awful for him, dude has had some shitty fuckin' luck. so, you now, i'm hoping he gets better.
also at one point i was in a shopping plaza smoking a cigarette with my friend beth and then some kids drove by us and shouted at her "GET A REAL MAN."
also it was warm as hell and i skipped rocks, that was nice in a goofy "appreciate the little things" type of way.

This is actually just a good excuse for me to get off my ass and come to Van sometime soonish.
I was very strongly considering making the trip for the Okkervil River/Titus Andronicus show but that was before I realised it's a lot sooner than I thought. I am a horrible, horrible man.
EDIT: Oh wait, the show is in June! I was reading the wrong set of dates. This could still happen, I am less sad now!

I just stared at this for about 2 minutes not realizing there was no comma between real and man, and thought "a real what, man?" :psyduck:
