today my grandpa died. i donno, i don't have much to say about it. i like to picture his cute wrinkled face lighting up and announcing "aha! here comes princess aubrey!", i like to imagine him dancing around with my aunt johanna and kicking his legs up to a rhythm that never quite matched the song, his perpetual picture-taking, and his endearing mannerisms when he addressed our family with some quiet superfluous words of wisdom.
i've cried a lot, but i keep reminding myself that eventually everyone's grandparents die. eventually everyone's parents die. everyone's siblings die. everyone dies. in 100 years, everyone i know on this earth will be dead.
i just wish my boyfriend would have asked me about it so i could attempt to communicate verbally instead of releasing everything into this stupid blog. but he didn't, and i didn't, and here i am.

please don't delete this. nothing made me happier than to read those things you wrote about him and to remember them myself. dont delete it because you described his actions and HIM so well. don't delete it.
i can't believe that i forgot all about his dancing skills! also, thank you for using the word superfluous. you are a gem!
