(no subject)

yesterday my nosy neighbor stopped me outside while i was running late for work. i was rushed and trying to be friendly. she's dealt with a lot this year. cancer. illness. etc. she told me her husband had two weeks to live. tumors removed from his lungs mastasticized. she's moving to vegas if he dies. too many memories here. i told her the bad memories can stay behind and the good ones will go with her. so much in our short talk.

he died today. the coroner was doing paperwork with his hazards on when i got home and moved his van out of the way so i could park. i asked him if it was her husband. he seemed surprised that i knew my neighbors.

there was something else. something about all of the rest of it. but right now. the streets are just shining with loss outside.
we're watching a lot of six feet under and i don't seem to be calling people back. sorry about that. i'll call soon.
