My grandma is dead :( Unexpected reaction to the cement used around a pin in a routine hip operation, though obviously her general declining health is not coincidental.

You can tell where I get my non-hugginess from, I said to mum that I'd give her a hug if I was there and she pointed out that neither of us would enjoy it, so I should give agnostic prayers (grandma was agnostic too, mum isn't. I wonder if she'll have a religious funeral like dad did for his atheist father. Hmm)

And then we talked about how I was evil for introducing my sweet innocent (lol) 23 year old brother to True Blood, because we're not big on talking about our feelings in my family.

Speaking of which: no supportive comments! Links to cheerful things will be accepted but are not mandatory, this is the sort of slow burn sad that doesn't suit that sort of thing so much.

It's interesting you say slow burn sadness... I like that.. I think that is an absolutely perfect description that no one ever takes into account.

I have no awesome links, as facebook sucked my brain out and turned it into a rollercoaster, cafe running, aquarium, farm and desert island keeper. Heh.

I will offer commentary though. True Blood is fantastic. I've just finished watching the first two seasons. :) The only problem I had with it was that now I find I accidentally speak with a bad, bad southern drawl at odd times.. Especially when people mention Jesus. :)

Oh, and I can't get the opening credits out of my head. :P

The opening credits are fantastic aren't they? That's what got me to give it a shot, after I saw them on a post about "best opening credits".
