I guess it's a bad month to be related to me. My uncle Eddy just died. He was my mom's only brother. Noy even a month since my grandma on the other side of the family died. i hadn't been real close to him the last lot of years, either, but when i was a kid he lived with us, and used to take me places, and always did pranky ass shit like wrapping his dirty laundry up as a big ass present, and then in the middle of it would be boxes of chocolates. Or throwing all his change on the floor for me and my cousin to scramble for.
He's why I'm a pirate, actually. For my seventh or eighth birthday, my mom gave me a tape player. And my gift from my uncle was a whole case full of tapes he had pirated from his music collection that he thought I would like. That's also when I started listening to women singers, now that I think, because it was stuff like stevie nicks, juice newton, janie fricke, sylvia?, and such. but it led me to a long path both of pirating music and of listening to woman singers, so i thank him.
He was a clown fan, collected them, was friends with some, and dabbled in costuming as a clown.
I don't want to just keep rambling all the cool shit like this is his eulogy, so i'mma stop now.
