Heya alls...ness...something or other. Yeahs I've just gotten back from a neat little weekend trip...to see a FUNERAL! YAYS!! lolz no not really yays of course not that'd be terrible. Yeah on the night of Saturday August 4th Xavier Ogdee died, I know weird last name right? Ok well what does this have to do with me since I'm not an Ogdee, well see he was a close family friend and he helped me and my family with a lot of stuff. Mostly Mom because they were good friends and she keped asking him to clean stuff for her lolz. But being a seperated mother (The divorce hasn't been final yet) with three kids on in college and one going into Collge in two years and another going into her second year of high school (hey that's me!!) The little things help a lot. Well I'm happy to say that I no longer feel like a heartless bitch becasue when I first found out I didn't cry, not a tear nope nada I know terrible right? While my mom cried for days. But y'know I didn't know Xavier THAT well I knew him, and I liked him but I didn't like KNOW him y'know? Yeah but I cried my eyes out when we went to see the body, sadly we missed out on the official funeral because they had on Thursday the viewing of the corpse and on Friday was the funeral....we kinda arrived last. Shows what great kinda people we are, but that's ok if I know Xavier he was up in heaven laughing his ass off saying something like "Stupid white bitches missed my funeral," y'know? He was one of those kinda guys that you had to joke about when he was gone because you knew he'd prefer it that way. I mean hell my mom and her two friends that came with us went out to a bar Thursday night (and left me at the hotel me being only 15) and put a picture of him on the pool table and played pool over his face. That must've been amusing. Especially considering their bartender still remembered them, (she was a really pretty girl and we saw her at Chilis the next day when we went to lunch cause she works there too it was kinda neat) Oh and my mom's friend Lisa I swear to god she's like

I SWEAR TO GOD SHE IS!!! Like the adult version, and it was so frustrating because she was one of those people who didn't look like an adult yet, she looked like she was a junior in high school MAYBE a senior, it was pretty neat. But she was sooooo blonde well not litterally y'know mind wise. Lolz sorry Jess but you're blonde too in both ways lolz

But I had a good time for the most part other then bawling my eyes out. I got to hang out with my mom, we didn't really bonde but we had a good time, and she trusted me alone in a hotel room that was pretty neat. It was kinda like a mini vacation and though we didn't do much it was just one of those things where it felt like it was more then it was, it was nicer then it seemed y'know? But anyway I'm glad I went because then I got the crying out of my system and now I know for sure Xavier really is gone, because he's one of those guys where it just doesn't seem like he'd die, especailly not in a car wreck, it hurt to see his body in the casket...coffin whatever because I just kept expecting him to sit back up and say something like "Baby Girl don't cry over me," or "Gotcha!" or something, y'know? Well someone has to just because this was my first funneral doesn't mean it was anyone else's. What really made me sad was the fact that we didn't get to meet his youngest daughter Athena because he had talked about her and she was just the most beautiful little girl I'd ever seen in my entire life, I saw her I just wasn't allowed to talk to her at all. Her mom didn't like my mom much and so we weren't allowed to associate with her. But my heart went out to that girl that day and I just wanted to go over and hug her so bad, cause she was just the prettiest thing and I could see the resemblance from her father so much and it just hurt so darn bad. But that's ok! I've gotta keep moving and I can't let that get me down! yes...Oh and y'know what also ticked me off. The fact that they gave him a Catholic funeral...I'm sorry that came out wrong I'm catholic...kinda (not hardcore more catholic by birth) but anyways so there is nothing wrong with that I know, but my problem is that he wanted to be cremated and they didn't do that! Apparently Catholics are supposed to look down on Cremation so I have recently discovered. If that's the case then I'm messed up because I want to be burned when I die. Throw my body in the fireplace and roast marshmellows over me for all I care....eww those marshmellows would taste terrible....But anyway I digress my point being I prefer to be very respectful to the dead, because I don't want them comming up and haunting my ass lolz j/k j/k that was bad...but yeah I think they should've had the decency to honor his death wish, I mean weather or not he had it on paper y'know? I say y'know to much...oh well. And no offense to those more religious people out there especially the catholic ones. But after this I have decided that I'm NEVER having a proper Catholic funeral, because at the viewing of the body they went over the rosary and I couldn't take another Hail Mary I swear to God my head was ready to pop, I'm sorry that's a bad thing to say but its true. And overall it was an interesting experience Mom's other friend Lisa (not the blonde one I talked about) I think she's wiccan pretty neat eh? Well I think so. But she gave us some herbs blessed with some wiccan mojo, it was like...a death...thing I don't remember, and it was pretty neat we were supposed to scatter them, and it smelled good too! I was like "Mom lets take a bit of "Xavier" here home and give it to Chase to see what he can make outta the caveman." I know terrible right? But like I said we had to joke about him otherwise Xavier would spit in our eye. By the way Chase = Culinary arts major which is why we'd talk to him and Xavier = hairy so mom called him Caveman. But yeah on the way back home we scattered the last bit of the herbs out the window and shouted "UG UG CAVEMAN!" in his honor. I reckon Xavier's getting his laughs in the afterlife. I just regret not being able to say goodbye but I suppose that's a normal thing for those who've been to a funeral for a loved one. But that's my story and I assure you all those who have left me messages I will answer them. And thank you for your sympathies if I get any
