Yesterday's Memories

I had to actually stop myself from calling my dad's number in my phone yesterday. In the past we'd talk about Deadliest Catch the night before. He got to love the show. I went into the room where I could get some good phone reception and then I stopped and remembered.

Force of habit I guess. I wasn't thinking. I know his phones are turned off but I haven't erased him out of my contact list. I doubt if I will. In six months those phone numbers will probably belong to someone else, that's fine. The world doesn't stop living because someone has died.

I might actually reach for my phone again soon, I'm impulsive like that sometimes. If you see me do it, let me, I'll catch myself before I dial.
