ouch.
this week has been hard on generation w (x-1). within minutes, i heard about one friend's parent passing and another one going to be gone in the next couple days. i was thinking, while i walked to the soda machine, having heard the news of the first, that "holy crap, it has REALLY begun," only to return to my office and hear a coworker talking about heading home this weekend.
seriously, friends and neighbors, get your shit together because you don't know when it's coming.
this serves as my reminder to talk to my insurance agent to bump up my life insurance... and to call my lawyer to get my will, trust, and living will in order. and to keep in touch with my family better. they might not be around much longer.
