Life. Don't talk to me about life.

ciroccojLazy Saturday around here. Went to Justin's ballet class, then went to visit Guy and drop off some things - the cards that the boys made for him, and pictures of ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ninja_kat and Jacob, whom he hadn't seen yet. Passed on love and messages from the boys and Chris, and from ninja_kat, my aunts Dory and Mary, and my cousin Ingrid. Also talked to Guylaine for a bit. They've got the same palliative doctor my mom had, Dr. Coulombe, requested specifically by Guy because of how wonderful she was with my mom. Incidentally, the same doctor is helping take care of Marie's mother, who is also terminal right now. Looks like Daniel and Justin will have even more in common with Nick and Oliver, Marie's kids, with whom we often go to museums.
This sucks.
Small Family
Justin and Chris holding Jacob.
Three sisters, three cousins (ninja_kat and both of her sisters had boys all within one month of each other).
The picture on Daniel's card to Guy. Those are glitter hearts and crosses.
I asked Daniel what he wanted to say to Guy, and he immediately sat down and wrote:
You will go on. "To a spirit, a life-time is the time to take a single breath." - one of Buddha Shacamoodie's (sp) students. I will always love you.
Justin's picture. To the right are Guy and Justin, to the left are souls. Guy's soul is in the top left-hand corner, in blue and yellow, and my mom's is the blue & yellow soul closest to him. There is some significance to the colours, but I didn't really understand it. Apparently it was something that they learned at Buddha Buddies.

In far happier news, we finally watched The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, which I totally loved and want to own despite the many large & small changes from the book & TV series, but which made me wish even more for the TV series. I wonder if it's out there on DVD.
::checks::
Hm, yeah, it is. Cool!
Favourite change: Marvin. TV Marvin was exactly how I imagined Book Marvin. You know. Gloomy looking. Long faced. I loved him.
But: Movie Marvin! Almost, but not quite, entirely unlike my idea of Marvin. I nearly died laughing. Cover him in plush and he's cuddly. And give him a voice by Alan Rickman... just too funny.
I also think I fell in love with the movie the moment I heard the opening music, straight from the TV series:
The Eagles, Journey of the Sorcerer.

Oh, and: remember Chris' amputated fingertip? Well, it's doing better now. The picture doesn't look that bad, but please do remember that he chopped the piece off February 15. So, like, over two weeks ago.
