the science of lazy
i've been sleeping in a shifty, home-made cot beside my grandpa's hospital bed for almost a year now. i get up during random times in the early morning to give him his nebulizer, suction phlegm from his throat, and noisly talk smack about my mom.
our combined reluctance to wake up early results in the both of us squriming around in our respective cribs; talking about things we would like to eat for breakfast while my grandma sits at the kitchen nook waiting for someone to make her a cup of coffee.
....
last night david and i raided my mom's pantry in order to stock our locker at school. "it's our only home outside of home" he said. though thoughtful and cute, i totally thought our home was victor's house becase we are always there passing out, watching tv, and eating mrs. castellanos's food. i guess now we have a summer timeshare.
....
watching my grandpa try to put his oxygen back in his nose while his eyes are closed, mumbling "scratchy, scratchy things" is in all honesty, one of the main reasons as to why i prefer taking care of him at night. old people to me are like big wrinkly babies that still manage to say the cutest things. negative associations with the elderly however, are mostly due to the fact that they're not plugged up with enough meds. take note!
addendum: my best x 10985 friend is in korea and i miss her terribly.
