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.

ETA: an upload link for the Cursive song

1. It's possible. Actually, it's probably really likely. I got it off of Imesh, and you should never trust their labels to be anywhere near accurate. Boni sent me the PJ Harvey version, and now that I've listened to it, it sounds like the exact same mp3, just with one a little quieter than the other.

2. No, I don't think so. Because the part I remember best is the "little fish, big fish/swimming in the water/come back here and gimme my daughter". I could have just imagined the whole thing, though. Or confused it with Dr Suess.
