So thanks to everyone for the good thoughts and all. In the end I've decided not to go to the service, for various reasons (though work was fine with it). I'll still do something privately memorial-like on Wednesday though, something meaningful and solitary (astrophysicat suggested something that would be amazingly appropriate, maybe I'll post about it afterward). It's too bad, as I'd like to see my zillions of extended cousins, but really, it's not a good plan logistically. And as my mom pointed out, it's between me and him, not for show.

In the midst of this deep thought stuff, I've found a condo, put a bid on it, was countered, and am now in the process of acquiring it. That's right! I'm going to be an owner instead of a tenant. Soon, even. For real! Pretty scary, but cool nonetheless. Lots of stuff to be done for that. I think I'll be happy there though.

In conclusion, life is weird. And hard to take sometimes. But on it goes...

Holy crap! Wow, that was fast! Hope your real estate karma is contagious!

Hey, congratulations on the condo! Keep us posted (as though that needs to be said...)!

My sympathy, and congratulations, both. *hugs*

[podling]

Thanks... on both counts.

wooo, condo-woman! Congrats!

Hmmm, so is this a good time to tell you my tax refund came and that means clothes shopping?

Ha! As if! It's going to be a while before it's in party condition. Not that you ever *come* to my parties or anything... ;)
