For months after my mother died in 1994 I dreamed that she would leave messages on my answering machine from the ether. I had the dreams so often that I expected to hear her voice after pushing the 'play' button when I got home at night.
As I was packing our stuff up on Saturday and arguing with Cy, I got this 'number withheld' call on my cellphone. When I answered it was all static. I thought of those dreams and imagined it was my mom calling to tell me to calm down and put the tent back up.
But, just like when she was alive, I ignored her advice.

Michael just sent this to me. It gave me chills almost instantly. Almost the exact same thing is happening to me.
Feels pretty good to know I'm not alone.
Yeah, it was things like this that I meant when I said they remain a force.
I still sometimes think, "Man, I've got to ask Mom that when ...".
As the Uncle and brother of Andrew and Sis, I can only smile at that last Blog. Yes, it was her static! Of that I am sure.
