This is just a note to all those inclined to drive long distances with groups of wacky persons: laughter and yawns are contagious, especially for those considered over-tired. And, apparently, household appliances are very funny.

I found out today that my grandfather on my father's side is having health problems. On Wednesday, he went in for an MRI and a mass was found in his kidney. He's going in for a biopsy this week. He's been unexplainably tired for several weeks now.

I don't know him very well, just like I didn't know my grandmother on my father's side well. I found out after she died how much I missed by not knowing her. I hope it won't be the same with my grandfather. Unfortunately, I don't think I have much of a chance to get to know him. He and my father haven't had good relations for a long, long time (it's not surprising my dad and I have problems, eh?). My grandfather has pretty much cut communication to my family and I really don't think he'd care to hear from me. I'd really like to be proven wrong.
