I certainly do prefer to deal with the feelings sooner than later.

Hm, be careful there. A salutatory drink can be fine, but be careful about drowning things in alcohol, it just makes it ten times worse in the end, and you shouldn't have to deal with anything else.


Oh yeah, I am not drowning it in alcohol...just thought a shot would be nice, but I know i can't drink the unpleasantness away. I probably got a bit drunk that night but nothing too extreme.

The truly crap bit when people you love die is when you've dealt with the initial shock, and you think you are handling it. Then some day you wake up in the morning and think of that person, or you hear something you know would interest that person, and you think I must remember to tell them about this and then you remember they are dead. I hate that s**t. People always expect others to get over things like that way too fast.

I have some people I really miss. In some cases, there is a certain acceptance because the person was old and ill and couldn't possibly be expected to live any longer. But when it happens to someone who ought to have a good few years in them, it's something else entirely.

Hope you are well, and that it's getting easier :heart:


Yeah earlier I saw he had sent me a friend request on facebook before he died...I don't really prioritize facebook so didn't notice until today. Of course the trouble is no point accepting it if he's dead but my first instinct was to do so then of course it hit me, he's not around to have his request accepted.

But also another person I know died recently and I wasn't all that close to them more acquaintance and maybe could have become better friends, but my dad did see him as a friend. Thing is he's been out in Minnesota doing pretty well, he's had it just rough for the past few years and has been homeless...but me and my brother have both talked to him on video chat and neither of us could bring ourselves to tell him over that, that his friend died out here in colorado we will tell him but that just didn't seem to be the time(so many of his friends have died so yeah it would be a difficult thing for him to take). So its just also kind of one death after another and the first one hasn't been fully dealt with because me and my brother know but my dad has yet to hear about it.
