0) Dinosaur Jr having reunited.
1) Actually being ok with having to go back to work on Monday.
2) Mobile phones running out of battery at just the right time.
3) Jasmine scented deodorants (ok I’ve run out of things).
4) Any kind of breakfast that includes honey.

There’s no remedy for the finality of the loss. More so if, like me, you are an atheist or generally don’t believe in any form of afterlife. The loss is final and this is what really delivers the blow I think.

The only thing that seems to help is knowing for a fact that most people want their loved ones to enjoy and celebrate their lives as much as possible after they have departed. This is what I want for people when I die and this is what most people would want for their loved ones. It’s the most comforting thing I can think of at really low times.

I’m pretty sure that even when one does get over such a loss, the memories that resurface are bittersweet but still, if you can find a place and a time where you can remember those people and not feel hopeless I really think that’s the best thing you can do to cope, you know?

0) Checking a hard drive to see if it works and discovering long lost music.
1) Dinosaur Jr.
2) Insomnia lightheadedness.
3) The boredom of not having anything stressful to do as opposed to the boredom of having to constantly do stressful things.
4) That weird comfort people get in smelling their own sweat when they’re in a place that really, really stinks.
