one of my uncles died overnight.

happened suddenly, so my folks and i are all pretty messed up right now.

i'm trying to follow my usual coping regime of business-as-usual mixed with sadness... it's working, i guess. still, i may or may not be terribly entertaining for a while. just so y'all know.

and since he was a fisherman, my Current Music goes out to him.

i'se the b'y who builds the boat
and i'se the b'y who sails 'er
i'se the b'y that catches the fish
and brings 'em home to liza...

i'll miss you, Jimmy.
