yikes, where to begin...

the past week has been full up ups and downs. my gramma's funeral was on tuesday, and i kinda fell apart by the end of the day. i was okay at the actual funeral...i mean, i think i cried more than anyone else there, but i didn't lose it really bad or anything. it was a nice service, actually...the pastor got people involved and it wasn't super-structured, and it was truly a celebration of who she was. i saw a lot of people that i haven't seen in years. everyone just loved her so much. later on in the evening chris and i went out for a beer to take the edge off. well, one beer quickly became six, and six beers + gramma's funeral + no dinner = hysterical crying on the way home. i think it was a certain johnny cash song that set me off. but anyway...i'm a lot better now.

let's see, what else happened...i friended steven wright on myspace and he left me a comment. that was pretty cool.

oh yeah, i put those 2 extra white stripes tickets i had up on eBay, and they ended up selling for $525.00. YEAH, i know. totally insane. to celebrate, i bought a cute dress to wear to the show. yes, i realize that the show is 2 months away, but i am a woman, and women do these types of things. i'm sure i will tire of this dress by that time and end up buying something else, but hey, whatever.

also, i feel like i should mention that last week's episode of "the sopranos" was one of the most intense ones in a long time. certainly the best episode all season. i watched it twice, had an hour-long discussion with chris about our theories on where this is all going, and then i pored over message boards for like two hours, reading other people's predictions. this episode was like the old days of the show; so good that you talk back to the screen. "no, christufah! DON'T DO IT!" "uh-oh, this is NOT going to end well." "*GASP!!!!!!* NO WAY!!" good stuff.

anyway...let's have some laughs, shall we?

ha, if only!! (apparently it was supposed to say "blair resigns." someone at cnn international is SO FIRED!)

ha. ha ha ha. (thanks, kenny)

divorce rate lowest since 1970. although probably because more people are just living together instead of getting married...?
