My grandfather died. I found out about 20 hours ago...
I caught myself reading all the email forwards he'd sent me that I usually just skipped over. I kept meaning to call these last few weeks. I knew he was sick, but I put it off anyway. I could just call him tomorrow, or next week, or some other time.
Now he's gone. No tomorrow, no next week, and no time left.
I could never find the time to go and visit or even to simply pick up the phone, but with almost no effort I made time to carry his casket.
Fuck.
I wish I hadn't taken him for granted.
Goodbye Poppa.
