goodbye.

My grandmother died this morning.  When I was a little kid, she showed me things from her yoga class, how to sit half-lotus, and she taught me to play cards, poker and gin and six kinds of solitaire.  She crocheted a blanket for me once, all bright-colored borders and little flowers, and it's still one of my favorite things in the whole world.  She liked Chinese food, and she always said she wished she went dancing more often, and I didn't spend enough time with her, ever, and I'm going to miss her. 

I'll be at my parents' house for the rest of the week, and may not be answering much email.
