Okay...a funny yet poignant side note. I've been making phone calls at work to change beneficiary info...stuff like that. You know how when you want to avoid something...like the fact that you are not pregnant but have simply gained a little weight...yet someone KEEPS bringing it up? Well, I keep getting asked the same bitter-sweet question by financial institutions. "Are you married?" The first time I was asked, the answer was an automatic, "Yes." Followed by an awkward, "Uh, well, kinda. Umm, he died. So, I mean no. Yeah, I guess no. I am not married." Funny? I find it "freakin' hilarious." Chuck would have found it humorous, and we would have joked about it ad nauseum for years to come.
