Yesterday, mom called to let me know my grandmother was nearing her last moments, and would I like to say goodbye. I did so. Luckily, I had a therapy appointment scheduled shortly thereafter, so about half of that went into reminiscing and processing. She passed this morning. I still appear to be the kind of person who copes with death best by maintaining routine and structure, so everything else in my life is the same. I went to the all hands meeting; I checked on the JHU fixes and made the call not to push them to production just yet; I had a slew of one-on-one meetings; I helped K get situated with the release tasks for 1.10. We had dinner, did the crossword, I watched 1993 Tales of the City, I had a snack, I went to sleep. Things will steep in the background. I don’t know what the funeral arrangements will be or when they will happen, but I will have plenty of stories.
