What did you do today?

I attended a friend's funeral today, he wasn't a close friend and we didn't see each other very often but I'd known him a long time. So I thought I had to be there. It was a good service, but it was the first time I'd ever seen the coffin carried on a shiny silver trolley, it seemed somehow disrespectful and lacking in dignity. The other thing I thought was strange was that the family didn't follow the coffin out of the church.

Yes, we'll see fire vortexes in most brushfires, even relatively small ones.  The ones in smaller fires are like dust devils (albeit on fire) but a big brushfire can create its own weather, including hurricane-force winds, thunderclouds, and actual tornados.  They're extremely dangerous since what creates them is the updraft caused by air heated from the fire.  At ground level there will be very strong winds going into the fire.  If they're strong enough to create a tornado they can be strong enough to knock a person over and drag them into the fire as well.  😱  

I want to make sure I never caught by anything like this than sounds like the worst thing I've heard of 😆

Sorry to hear about your friend even if you weren't that close. I have never seen a funeral this way either is this because there was no one to carry it?

Sorry about your friend @Animedragon

 I had work today and I didn't get enough sleep for it. Going to go to bed soon but had to check in with friends on Discord and clan so they knew I was still alive.

Those fire vortex things sound quite terrifying to me and I definitely don't want to be anywhere near one 😱

Thank you. There were two people each side of the trolley so it didn't look too bad, but what I thought was really bad was that the trolley was bright chrome silver it would have looked better in matt black or even better covered in a black cloth. I would have thought the undertaken would have thought of that especially as they're a well known and long established firm. 

@Sakura, @Sarada, @Eris thank you for your condolences, funerals are never easy to attend, but I'm feeling OK now.

I started my volunteer work back today ~ I needed to find something to do and I loved volunteering at the zoo aquariums before so I'm back to this every weekday except Wednesday from 1-5PM ~ and I think this will be good for me to pass the time this Summer. 

I ended up taking a lil nap when I got home I'm gonna need to get used to doing this again @.@ and then just talked to @Jellal @Eris and some other friends on RS the rest of this evening. 

@Animedragon That's really a strange thing ._. and also sorry about your friend hope that you're doing alright 

I'm glad you found that to do over the Summer :V 
And I'm glad you're doing alright @Animedragon

I'm still at work currently just taking a little break to browse online. I've got to finish cleaning out my garage when I get home. I'm mostly finished with it just a few things  left to haul to the garbage.

This morning I did the usual grocery shopping. I watched some anime while eating my lunch then spent most of the afternoon working on a GFX "commission" to create an advertising poster for our church's next social event. I sent it off to the organiser and hope they like it 🙂

I had work today and I'm still at work just taking a little break. It seems the events that occurred over the weekend are going to keep me up on a long night after some things revealed last night 😆

I've been playing RS with Sora and he's been doing unspeakable things to me and a bench took his parents to Heaven :( 

What he what? ◄.► Enough unspeakable things have happened to you this week! Do we need to get the whip?!

Perhaps we should do things to Sora 😁

I don't know if I want to do *those* things!! I got a rundown of what happened last night from Serey a few minutes ago  😱

But I should add it also sounds like Serey did horrible things too!!
