I've got some good news and some bad news.

The good news is that you can take your time getting your entries done (or polishing them up). The bad news is that I have to put it on hold for a bit.

I have to fly back home to Nevada to visit my dying grandmother. I leave a week from today, and I'll be back on the 1st. I'll be taking the laptop with me, but since my grandmother doesn't have internet, and the chances of finding a wifi spot in Elko, NV are pretty slim...

We'll pick it up then.

Sorry, guys.

No problem, Syl. That's a bit more important, eh? My grandmother died when she was 90. She was one of the top couple of most important people in my life.

I lost my grandparents before the age of seven. I still miss them to this day. I dont think people realise just how important they are.

Due to deaths, family relations and distance, I never knew any of my own grandparents. Enjoy her while you may, Syl.

Thanks, guys.

Yeah, I lived with her off and on for many years when I was a kid, so she's really important to me.

So sorry Syl,

I am sure your grandmother will be comforted by your being there. My thoughts and good wishes go with you, Watch brother!
