Last Monday.

Last minute me... :

So many little details...

Like I changed my password at WDC Saturday. Why? International keyboards can be a pain. I made the password easier. Easier is better when I get frustrated. The really great news? I remembered the new one today!

My uncle died this past week in Pennsylvania. Should I care? Well... I should. But I only met him a couple times in my life. My mother's family wasn't much of a family. More like related-by-blood people who avoided each other. His sister is unhappy; my mother is nonchalant. So I called a cousin in Oregon since no one else will probably tell her. Other family? If I can get a hold of my cousin in Arkansas...

I have little energy to spare for drama. Still, it would've been nice to have had a closer family.

Which reminds me that I should call family on my father's side before I leave. Not that it matters as much with Skype. And there's no obligation as nobody calls me.

Which explains why local friends and acquaintances and facebook buddies and WDC friends matter so much. Humans are meant to make family. I do what I can.

This week's word: hysteria. Today is Last Monday. Tomorrow Last Tuesday. Last Wednesday? A week of saying good-bye as most of the older folks don't use facebook and many of the younger ones that do have their own lives and students are busy as the end of the semester nears.

Yesterday was laundry. Once dry I need to choose and start packing. Could've done this before but it wasn't necessary. Some things were set aside a couple months ago.

The Last Day? If I'm not totally packed it's called dump-and-stuff.

Ah... rent is due today. It's the "little" details.
