Thanksgiving

Ran into an old super. His wife passed away after a few years with suffering a brain hemorage. She was revived twice the day she had it.

I'm reminded that Tylenol-2 with codeine and apple sauce binds. Morphine pills bind too and they see things.(Use pureed prunes in the baby food section instead of apple sauce.) And they still jump three feet off the bed because they can't pass a stool. The morphine patch? Well, maybe they lose their sight and maybe they slip into a coma really quick. And if they live at home then there's bound to be one relative that thinks it's a great time to send men up onto the roof to reshingle it. Or one that shows up on a Thursday night before a long weekend so you're not getting any relief.

But then you remember spreading the ashes of two people, very much in love at their place of love and everything seems right in the world.

Maybe it's time to think about what you want.
