I see dead people.
Just kidding. I don't.
I prefer it that way.
Dead people are cold.
And lifeless.
And rather quiet.
Technically,
I know some living people
like that so...
I guess I do see dead people.

How do they do it?
Morticians.
They don't just have to see dead people.
They have to handle them.
And drain them.
And make them look like an alive person.
**Side note:
Do you think it is harder to make a dead person look alive
or make an alive person look dead?? **
In my mind,
morticians are literally the only people who can say
"I get paid to see dead people."
If you think about it,
any of us can see dead people.
I think it would be more of a shocker to say...
"I see people who are dead and buried walking around.
And guess what. They talk to me."
That would be cool.
But only if they weren't the rotting type.
Like if they looked like they did when they were alive
and not mid-decomposition.
And if I could talk to someone who was dead but looked alive
...and didn't smell, because I can only imagine...
I wouldn't wish it was someone famous.
Not me.
If I had my choice, I would want to talk to
Frieda Zuther.
She is my husband's great-grandmother who immigrated from Germany.
I know she had a three sisters and a two brothers.
I know she lived on a farm, 20 miles from town.
I know all her neighbors were family.
I really want to know this woman.
Yes.
If I saw dead people
....with the above stipulations...
she would be the one.
