cosmolinguistIt should be my brother's birthday today.
The run-up to Christmas was always about having to find two goddam presents for him (a nuisance only alleviated by knowing he had to do the same; my birthday is even closer to Christmas) so it still sometimes feels weird to...not be having to think about that.
He should be 36 today.
He didn't even get to be 22.
I should be calling him up to dutifully wish him happy birthday, strategize for seeing our parents soon for Christmas, ask about my niblings.
