Bazzel said a special Mass for the family and friends, then we all went out to lunch.\u00a0 I wasn&#8217;t so sure I wanted to be around people, but it turned out to be exactly the thing I needed.\u00a0 After lunch, Fr. Dean and I went to get dessert, then to the cemetery, which was really nice.\u00a0 He and I shared memories and laughed about&#8211;just the way he was.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Some of Michael&#8217;s students had gone to the cemetery that morning to &#8220;have coffee with Fr. L.&#8221;\u00a0 They had poured coffee on his grave which was pretty funny.\u00a0 He would have appreciated that.\u00a0 Also, his nephew (who used to be this sweet little boy and is now in COLLEGE) and I talked about the time the 3 of us went to the planetarium and out to dinner like, a million years ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The weird thing was that I think I was more sad on the 26th when I realized that it was the anniversary of the last time I saw him alive, the last time I spoke with him, the last time I gave him a hug.\u00a0 I have to admit that when I got home the night of the 28th and it was quiet and I was alone, I had a good long cry.\u00a0 But overall, I just really think that Michael was looking out for all of us that day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>OK, so I&#8217;m adding this now 2 days later, and as it turns out, I&#8217;m pissy today too!\u00a0 I&#8217;m not even sure why, but I started out that way, so rather than rant anymore, I&#8217;m going to go ahead and post.\u00a0 My Days rants to Aimee have been funny as hell, in my humble opinion, but since she&#8217;s the only other person who is going to read this, there&#8217;s no need in posting them.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, I&#8217;m kind of pissy today.\u00a0 Not sure why, I just woke up that way.\u00a0 I figured this was a good place to just ramble mindlessly about stuff while I&#8217;m in my pissy mood.\u00a0 So, here goes&#8230; If Philip on Days calls that unborn baby a clump of cells again, I&#8217;m going to go postal.\u00a0 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/randthought.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/225"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/randthought.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/randthought.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/randthought.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/randthought.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=225"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/randthought.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/225\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/randthought.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=225"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/randthought.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=225"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/randthought.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=225"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
