Conversations with my family:
*random discussion of, I don't remember, TV maybe*
Mom: So yesterday I went- wait, I told you Grandma has cancer, right?
Me: ...What?
Mom: Grandma has cancer.
Me: Mom!
Mom: Yeah, that probably wasn't the best way to tell you. Anyway, yesterday-
Me: That's it? You're not even going to say what kind of cancer?
Mom: Oh, yeah, I guess I should tell you that.
My family. We beat all y'all in terms of crazy. And by the way, this isn't really a big deal, as we've known she was sick for a while and, as further discussion revealed, she might not *actually* have cancer, and even if she does, it's not terribly serious. But, wow, tact is so not the word for us.
Bonus Fun!
I found this while coding my website. I made it months ago, but forgot to ever upload it. Lyrics from 'The Lament of Pretty Baby' by Cursive (which is the most Hisoka song ever; in adddition to the quote on the icon, it talks about a doctor, a sister something mysterious happened to, and has the line "the moon has raped me". I adore it), and is open for grabs, if anyone wants it.
Poe - Down by the Water. I would swear that I first heard this song years ago, while listening to the classic radio station my parents play, and that it was sung by a man. But when I was looking up the lyrics, apparantly it's a PJ Harvey song. I have no idea why I seem to remember it from my childhood. Anyway, here's a cover by Poe that I really like, that I've been listening to a ton over the last few days.
