The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

I recieved a call this morning from my mother informing me that my father, who I have not really had much contact with beyond a phone call once a year around Christmas, passed away yesterday. Apparently, he had esphogeal cancer and it was not diagnosed until the quite late, thus, not much could have been done. He hadn't told anyone until a few days ago and I didn't find out till this morning.

My parents divorced when I was 4 and my father was never a large part of my life. I feel quite placid about this, but there is an underlying sense of frustration that I wasn't able to at least talk to him one more time before passing.

Think I'll go buy some nice Scotch and take the rest of the week off.
 
wow, that really sucks, man. I can't really imagine what it's like, since I've lived with my dad my whole life, but...wow. Sorry, man.
 
I'm sorry for your loss der morgerstern. My family is also dealing with a sudden death and I know how hard it is to say goodbye to someone when you didn't get the opportunity to spend his/her final hours by their side.

I have the same situation with my father (haven't talked to him in awhile) and I feel now no matter what legal issues him and my mother have between them I have to go visit him this spring break week.
 
One of my shrimps just died, right after one of my fishes ate all its children yesterday it got stuck in the aquarium air pump today and passed away. Man, I feel fucking bad for that little awsome creature...
 
I've been thinking about how awful Krig's logo is for his band.

In retaliation for having to view that travesty, I am thinking about making a mock album and logo as revenge. With a new band name:
Krigloch the Furious' Swords of Vengeance
The album title will be: Et tu Flatulent Paladin?
 
Feeling a bit like The Greys lately but from swirling chaos, binge eating and insane depressive-manic-depressive mood swinging cycles/medication changes is coming clarity. Or maybe I'm just happy it's Friday. Either way, TGIF and having drunk a few mugs of strong coffee I feel like I can handle life today.
