anyway it's now been 24 hours since my brother called with the news of our dad's death, and since tumblr is my journal, here are some Experiences from those 24 hours:
my brother ending the call with "hey btw you now own a quarter share of a boat and a one-bedroom apartment" and me going. huh. that's one way to get on the property ladder.
talking to a different brother on the phone and playing neopets while he googled rigor mortis, normal sibling experiences
having a crisis in the baked goods section of the grocery store bcos i wanted to get a treat and i'd already bagged a doughnut and then saw they had almond croissants and realising i really wanted an almond croissant and solving the crisis by just getting both (i had the doughnut for breakfast today)
looking up similar apartments in my dad's area to figure out the value of the place in hopes it would be low enough that i wouldn't be hit with an inheritance tax bill (it probably won't be)
looking up if inheritance affects unemployment benefits (it does not)
the very first thing instagram showed me this morning being an urn unboxing video like???? yeah the leopard-print urn was cool but we have different laws in finland around cremated remains so there's probably no point in us getting anything like that, also what does the algorithm know
oh my god i forgot the part where brother #2 said to me "my corollances" in reference to that "my deepest toyota corollances" meme. like yup that's a thing you can say when your mutual father dies. try it on your siblings now!
