"I don't understand how this all happens. How we go through this. I mean, I knew her, and then she's...there's just a body, and I don't understand why she just can't get back in it and not be dead anymore. It's stupid. It's mortal and stupid. And, and Xander's crying and not talking, and, and I was having fruit punch, and I thought, well, Joyce will never have any more fruit punch, ever, and she'll never have eggs, or yawn or brush her hair, not ever, and no one will explain to me why."
That gets me every time...it was exactly how I felt, exactly how I imagine nearly everyone feels when someone they love dies. Yes, it definitely sucks. And hurts...and never stops hurting, not really.
