Girl Finding Her Way

Babblings, rants and the general nonsense of a 20-something newly admitted attorney trying to find her way

Grey’s, Dad, Fate?, Some More Unofficial April 4, 2008

1. Grey’s Anatomy starts back up on April 24th. I absolutely cannot wait!

 

2. The anniversary of my dad’s death is next Tuesday. It will be 19 years. 19 years!! I have not visited his grave since I was a little girl. My mother never wanted to bring us. I will go, for the first time in well over 15 years, this Tuesday. It is important that I finally do this and be the daughter I feel like I should have been all this time to him. For some reason, I think it might bring some closure in my adult life that I have not felt.

 

3. Do you believe that everything happens for a reason? I sometimes wonder what my life would be like now if my dad had not died when I was little. At times I wonder the same about other things that have or have not occurred. It’s silly, pointless and really quite irrelevant. I am intelligent enough to know that wondering cannot change anything. But… much like my other pointless habits (umm… all my 100 tv shows, TMZ… I could go on) I find myself thinking about it once in a while.

 

4. I sent Unofficial an email today apologizing for my little snarky remarks. When I saw him the other night/morning, I did my usual thing… I made off the cuff snarky comments at random points. I did not intend to be hurtful or inappropriate or confrontational. I have a habit of using sarcasm to deal with things. Very rarely is this a good way to deal with anything. So, I wrote an email apologizing to him because I know that the comments caught him off guard. He was his usual understanding and patient self with me. His response was that I am allowed to deal with the situation as I see fit and that he was in no way upset or offended. I like him…

 

5. The Boston Marathon is in less than 2 weeks. This will be the first time in my life that I’m in the Boston area for the race. Unofficial knows I want to see the race and be in the city for the day… I’m hoping he remembers this and makes plans with me for it. It’s just a great day in the city usually and I think it’s the type of day he and I could really use together!! :-)
