• I made LEMONAIDE!

    But I didn’t fresh sqeeze it, cause I am a whore.


    Thursday Sucked. Thursday was a day that should have been spread out a couple of months so I didn’t have to get bombarded with all that at once.
    It all happened for a reason and i’m done trying to figure it out why. I am chalking it up as a reason to count my blessings.

    On Friday night we barely made it out to Davis to see my boys play. They were to go on stage at 10:30 and since Kara’s dance ran late, we couldn’t make it out there until a quarter to 11.
    I walked in so worried I missed it and then I saw Jim, the guitar player getting ready to set up. He gave me a big ol’ hug and said, “My mom loves you!” I told him that I loved her too and her emails always make my day.
    As I watched them play I was just grinning from ear to ear like a proud parent. I thought how Jean must feel when she watches them play.
    THE RUSE‘ commit that name to memory people. These guys are going to make it. I swear.

    Charlotte and Sue paypaled me some money so I could have a drink on them. I had 4. Thank you guys. It worked. I was trying to pawn my 4th drink off on anyone that would drink it though because I didn’t want to spend my whole night crouched over, pleading with God to make it stop. Clearly God wasn’t happy with me so I wasn’t going to ask any favors until I got back on his good side.
    I have pictures of me with the band, but Shaun needs to fix them. I wish I could be one of those people that gets hammered yet looks like they just walked out of church. When I drink I look like I just stepped out of a strip club on free hot dog night. Red eyed, bloated with a touch of afterglow.


    On Saturday, Shaun and I went to visit Kathy at her Dad’s house. I got to talk to Kathy for awhile and hang out with her other side of the family. Because I love my sister I will leave out the funny, detailed description of this visit and just say that I am going to need more dental work after attempting to chew that metal-like hamburger.
    As we were leaving we went out to the car to get a bag out of Kathy’s trunk when this random neighbor dog ran up to us, sniffed around and then peed on Shaun. Kathy burst into laugher and I grinned from ear to ear!

    When we pulled up at the house, I had these flowers sitting on my doorstep. I brought them in and read the note. It was from Lori, who was hoping that my weekend was going to to better than my Thursday.
    In the flowers are lemons. I thought that was perfect! I grinned from ear to ear.

    Then I ended my Saturday night with a long talk with Lawbrat. When I got off the phone with her I felt like I was healed a little bit. I hope she felt the same.

    Now it’s Sunday and I hear Shaun in the backyard with the weed eater, which makes me happy, because soon I will be able to see out the back window again. I hear the dryer going which makes me happy because that bitch hasn’t broke yet.

    Thank you everyone for the comments, emails, chats, drinks, flowers, hugs…
