the hum drum of life

just got back from the hospital from visiting my grandmother. a very solemn reminder why i hate hospitals. they're depressing and uncomfortably sterile. i tried to take my mind off things by busying myself with nurses walking around, going about their business. it didn't help much. after feeding gran her dinner, i sat on the edge of her bed looking at another old lady across the room. her face was full of character. she had all these lines and wrinkles from age. she looked like she was maybe 90 or so. as i was watching her, she woke up. i don't know if she could actually see but she kinda gave a smile and went back to play with sandman... interesting. wish i had my camera to take a pic of her face.
hmmm... hospitals make me blue. think i'm going to get myself and ice cream or some kinda happy food.
