I know... I've been horrible about updating here. I haven't found a lot of personal time to write lately. I'm not particularly happy about this. I need to remind myself to write more often. It's therapeutic.
So, it seems that I have finally found a job. It's exactly what I was looking for in all. I'm working part-time in an office... and it's ridiculously low stress. It's perfect.
I wound up getting the job at the Italian Cemetery after all. I go to a lot of funerals. The one today sticks out more then any other funeral. Not because it was today... because that too makes sense. But because it was... rather sad. Only two people showed up. Because it was raining on and off, they decided to use a chapel instead of have the funeral at the grave site. It almost reminded me of the type of funeral you see in movies for the anti-hero.
I've also had the opportunity to see an Armenian funeral. So far, I think I appreciate Sicilian funerals the best.
The one thing that I have learned (at least so far) is that there is a lot of paper work in the funerary business. Unfortunately, even after death, there is a paper trail.
Hey friend! Congrats on the job! You know, I'd actually like a job like that, being that I spend much of my time in local cemeteries. Hey, maybe I'll bump into you at work.
