I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.

hey family, we are home and happy :)  my walk to the bathroom this morning did not involve any blue water, mud or downhill slopes, so I call it a win.   We got home about 4:30am and only had one minor incident on the PA turnpike when the tailgate popped open (fun), but nothing was lost and we kept on truckin'.  Love you all,  had a great time...

we are packed (except pillows and other such things) and just have a few stops plus lunch and we will be on our way.  will call when we get in and settled... love you guys, everyone be safe

also, my new quote is "Hey it's no big deal...Oh look, I bounced right back"

that is where we stand.
mass packing left, Walmart, waiting for the chapel to call back, still in the office.

* found wedding rings for both of us.. finding a size 13 men's was tough. 10 places to find a ring to fit him! Total spent for both? $63.00!! 70% off sale is the tits!

* got free tickets to Willie Nelson for next Tuesday.. the old radio muscle flex still works! Woot! I have wanted to see Willie my whole life, he is in that special category with Merl Haggard and George Jones. I wasn't sung lullaby's, I was sung old country songs. I sooo want to get back stage or on the bus and get high with Willie... *ultimate life goal*


* almost all things for Vegas done - confirmed RSVP = 29. Six of those people are members of the CC that T works at. :D They are bunches of fun to hang out with. Maya, Minimal and Imp, Kevin & his wife Diana are making the trip for us, that is awesome!

* Had a long weekend of family Friday, Saturday and Monday.

Friday night we had fun fun funeral home time. I do like my step mom's family, we just all saw each other like 2 weeks ago, so that takes away that warm up time that the once a year family takes sometimes. Apparently after the funeral there was some WWIII shit going down at dead grandma's house.. woot.. family fight! Apparently the line "I'm just going to go home, get my fuckin' gun and shoot that asshole" came out. My step mom's brother is a crazy person. Seriously. I think he is a sociopath, he sees no wrong in his actions and used to drown cats and stuff as a kid. His ex wife was paid monthly by his parents to stay married to him, and after several years, no amount of money was enough. Nice huh? His two kids? They live in South America and Arizona.. talk about running as far away as possible. Family is fun! (and please note that none of these people are blood relation to me.. AT ALL) lol

So, Saturday went ok, except the funeral and graveside took over 2 hours! *stabbing eyes out with little pencils next to hymn books in church* We had free BBQ after.. fair trade.

Monday was mom's husband's b-day - Ribs and more family time!

* Saturday we went to see the new Terminator. C+. Would do better but the cheese smeared on the end and Christian Bale's super scratchy Batman radio voice took points off. The visual?.. awesome!

* last Friday saw Rusted Root

* Saturday saw my sister play

* got T's suit on Monday

* cleaning out a house with mom (super gross mildew madness)

* step mom's mother died yesterday after many long years of Alzheimer's, funeral home tonight, funeral tomorrow.

* will be in vegas in 1 1/2 week. woot.

* found shoes, now must hem dress

* t is on his 3rd 12 hr shift of the week, 2 more to go. poor tired babe.
