Grandma.

Stuff from Facebook #8

Miss you.


September 17, 2018

Looked up my grandmother's obituary. April was the 11th anniversary of her death. 
I miss her to pieces. 
She was selfish, greedy, a moocher, told lies about her childhood and adolescence for pure entertainment, played sick for attention, and was outrageously lazy, but she was who she was, and she wasn't a hypocrite. 
Despite her flaws, she never pretended to be a fucking holy roller. 
She never put herself on a moral pedestal, and she never gave self-righteous lectures. 
Even in her lie stories, she made herself a flawed character. 
There were lies, but there was no bullshit. 
And there was no sneaky gossipy treachery with her. 
If she thought you were an asshole or an idiot, she'd come right out and say so to your face. 
And she was FUN. 
She wasn't fucking boring. 
Looking back, and looking at some of the idiots in my family still alive, I gotta say, she was my favorite. 
No one else like her. 
She was a character. 
Her absence is acutely felt.

Yep.
