So, today I had to go identify my mother's body. My grandparents initially wanted me to go in alone because they didn't think they could handle it. However, at the last minute, my grandmother thought she would regret it more if she didn't see Theresa to say good-bye one more time. Really, seeing her wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. She looked ok, and I know that by now she's likely cremated, so i won't have to deal with it again.
However, this entire process has had its moments. Some of you may have gathered that my mother and I shared lots of interests, and this is true to a large extent. Well, let me be the one to tell you, that when you share lots of interests with your parents, you really should expect to inherit some things that you'll like and enjoy for practical as well as sentimental reasons. This has been nice, but it has also meant that part of my inheritance is my mother's collection of anime porn. Now, this shouldn't come as a shock since I recommended most of those movies to her myself. She just told me one day that she liked anime, porn, and vampires. Well, you can guess that there's some duplicates in our collection, but she also had some things I never bought. As such, I now get to say that I inherited the first two volumes of Cool Devices, and Legend of the Overfiend.
Now, I'm happy about this, but I feel a little squicked out at watching my mother's porn. I don't know if it's better or worse that I felt no similar discomfort when I went for her handcuffs and leg shackles (she was a correctional officer, remember?).
Thankfully, Tara, not I nor my grandmother, found Theresa's vibrator. Doubly good that it's a bullet type, and as such not recognizable for what it is by my grandmother.
