4.When was the last time you had a good cry?

The last BIG cry was on Thanksgiving, when my mom and I broke down putting up Christmas decorations because of my brother. He's... gone, I guess is one way to put it, and she broke down when she pulled out his stocking, and it was horrific, and we bawled for an hour. In no way was it good, though. Just heartbreaking. Not cathartic, no sense of release from it. I also cried on Christmas morning, when I went with her to visit him. Not good.

The tsunami is really up there. Jesus. Other than that, personally, it's seeing what my parents have gone through in the last six months.

Yes.

10.Who was the closest person in your life that died way too soon/before their time?

The people closest to me who have passed all passed when they were supposed to. My grandmother after a very long and debilitating illness. My grandfather at the age of 77, although it still, five and a half years later, doesn't feel right. He was so strong. A friend of mine from high school did die too soon. Summer vacation before our senior year, Ashley was on vacation with her family in Mexico, got drunk, and fell off a balcony, breaking her neck. That was... awful.

I'm really sorry about your cat, Brian. That's so, so sad. I'm sorry.

Not that it matters but I realized the other night that in my 5 funeral songs, I put Mozart's requiem, but I meant to be more specific, and I'm too darn lazy to go back and edit my previous post. So anyway I meant to write 'Ave Verum Corpus'-- it's only 3 minutes long, but really so beautiful. Actually you can click on
