When will I learn?

I should know better than to bring up the topic of my father when I'm talking to my mother. I had to close my eyes and breathe deeply when we were done. Which then made me ponder, can you still be estranged from someone if they are dead?

sigh. Happy Wednesday. It's all downhill from here.

In other (happier) news, the class boards are printed. Today/Tonight I get the event catalogs done. Maybe even the class sign-in forms. Look at me - I'm not racing at the last minute or experiencing insane levels of stress. Well, not about Collegium, anyway. It feels weird. I must be forgetting something.

Estrangement after death? Why not? My father's death didn't make everything okay. My mother's mission is now to reshape the past to make him a Good Man. Whatever.

The power of the brain is amazing. My mom is doing the same thing. After totally cranking my engine, she then asked me to say some prayers for him. Some days I'm not sure who irks me the most, mom or dad.
