An era change is approaching
I think I just started to realize today that everything is going to change right now. When Nonna dies I will no longer be little Paolo and it's time to get serious about my future. Like when do I start making the virtual Paul database so trhat I can preserve myself in digital format. I want to be able to exist in an iPod and to be shared on the internet.

Waiting While Nonna is dying
I am sitting here. She keeps holding on but she doesn't move anymore.

It looks like I might the landlord of a house in Buffalo from Nonna. It will be interesting to be a landlord. Maybe I will enjoy it and buy a hundred houses as part of my consume Buffalo before it consumes me plan.

My mother just said that she wants me to be her health care proxy because my brother would keep her hooked to a machine in closet for eternity.

To pass the time I was reading about housing costs to pass the time and San Francisco doesn't have the largest rate of housing cost growth but it does have the highest housing costs in the entire county. There is no city even close.

The only city even remotely close was honalulu

Everything is Crazy Right Now
I got an emergency message to get home ASAP. T-mobiles internet has been down so it was really hard for me to get messages. Turns out Nonna [search]nonna[/search] is in the hospital and is very at the end. I hope they can ease the suffering at this point. She is supposed to get a morphine drip for the pain she is having breating.

She had a massive stroke and is pretty much not there. She moves one arm every once in a while, but only to reach up to nothing in front of her. Sometimes she tries to pull the tubes out.

I hope I never get to that point in life. I want to die of a sudden heart attack. I feel bad for (e:mike) He was going to pick her up for his graduation dinner and she was passed out on her kitchen chair, writing his graduation card. I guess they have been at the hospital ever since. I will update my vacation info later.
