Thanks, I do appreciate it. I'll mostly be fine. We have such a full weekend. In addition to the EyeCon stuff, on Friday I have meetings and a site visit over at Universal where we're holding our 2010 Harry Potter event, and Saturday night we're to head back over there for a Halloween event, so there will be LOTS of distraction.
And that's good, because he wouldn't want any of us to stop doing what we do on his account.
But I know it'll hit at odd intervals and I'm glad that all my roomies will be good friends who get it, even if they don't share the immediate grief.
And I think you're right. Joel and I were talking about the odd sensation that one can actually feel unworthy to be the vessel of so much grief. It feels selfish and melodramatic, especially when he wasn't my father, my brother, my uncle, my liege, or my lover. But he was all those things, too, in a way.
Family don't end with blood.
I'll be mostly okay, I promise. I won't be a flood all weekend!
