Welcome Back

I went away last weekend back to PA for originally the holiday. But sadly, my grandmother passed away and thus, most of my weekend was filled with family.

It's always interesting to see how people cope with these types of events.

During the viewing, hardly any people cried or were upset. The viewing was basically for us to get reacquaitned with those we haven't seen in a long time. For instance, I haven't seen many of my cousins since I was four or five. I met the Zinger boys again. Turns out, my cousin Keith is a line-backer for LSU. Geaux Tigers!

However, the funeral service and actual funeral were the worst for everyone. It was rough on me becuase my older brother was away at boot camp for drill instructor training.

I did spend much of my weekend laughing and smiling, which is nice. It's always good to go home and see friends and family, even if it is under such sad circumstances. I did make time to get away from my family and see some old friends, hit a few bars, had a few drinks.

You know.
Cope.
