My dad was talkning at the dinner table and he suddenly turned and said to me; "By the way,______ died, did I tell you that?" "Uhhh, no." is what I said. "He died last week..." then he paused as if something had occurred to him. "You do remember him right?" "Um... I'm familiar with him." is what I said. Everyone else at the table had a light chuckle, and I realized that it was actually kind of funny how unintentionally dismissive of this guy who died. I need to go outside more...(;゚∀゚)
