Bachelor days are over today, as Granny is scheduled to arrive at some point, fresh from her trip to the fascist state known as Minneapolis. Oh, the boys and I have had a good run here for the past 10 days or so, watching football and action movies (where shit gets blowed up and whatnot) ’til all hours, with nary a dissenting word. But all that changes today.

It’s rather convenient, really, since it’ll (hopefully) give me somebody to attend my uncle Bill’s wake and funeral with. I’m not real good with that kinda stuff, so it’s a big help to have somebody to go with. Uncle Bill is the last member of that particular generation on my side of the family. I guess that means it’s my generation’s turn to start dying off next.

Not today though. Today I gotta go to work.
