It looks like Ben and Jerry’s easter egg has crashed their site.

GPOYW:The night of the meteor shower…several tries and I could NOT look at the flash.  Every picture ended like this. 

..and like every step of this God-awful journey, it is breaking my heart that he has to go through this.  This man who deserves so much more.  

There is very little in me that believes in miracles anymore.  With every phone call that we get filled with bad news, a small part of that capacity dies.  But I’m trying to hold out enough hope that, despite what the doctors say, we’ll look back on this time and remember the “crazy thing that happened next.”  

Because today I thought a lot about my birthday coming up, and the next 30 years of my life, and how much I have not done…how I have not figured out yet, even now, what it is I want to be…and how I am still very much on this journey.  And I want him to be there for that so badly I can feel it in every bone.  How can it matter what I become or where my life leads if he is not.

You may get sick of hearing this, if you already are I am sorry, but I hate this. I hate all of it.

Federal agents are seeking to hire Ebonics translators to help interpret wiretapped conversations involving targets of undercover drug investigations.

I keep saying that they really need to hire Lil Wayne.

But looking at a calendar, it appears that because of events that my friends have scheduled, I’m not going to be able to squeeze in anything for my 30th celebration.

I’m going to try not to be bummed about that, and just go with “that’s fine,” but if that’s the case, I get to be 29 still.

Let’s be honest, it’s not like I was going to “celebrate” this one anyway.  It would have been like a group therapy session.

Christina Hendricks, Matthew Fox, Connie Briton (Tammy, Friday Night Lights), Eric Stonestreet (Cameron, Modern Family), Chris Colfer (Kurt, Glee)

Talent.

President Barack Obama jokingly puts his toe on the scale as Trip Director Marvin Nicholson, unaware to the President’s action, weighs himself as the presidential entourage passed through the volleyball locker room at the University of Texas.

Since I think Boy will make a pretty convincing Don Draper with a fedora on, and I obviously will make a killer 60’s sex kitten..or housewife, I haven’t decided…that I’m creating Mad Men costumes for Halloween.

Halloween, in case you do not know me, is important stuff to me. And this is only a small part of the battle.  Now to come up with the perfect costumes.

Good dads are priceless.

I am the type of person who goes pretty out of my way for friends. It’s not really for any reason other than I like to think that everyone deserves that from a friend. I am typically the one throwing parties, or gathering the troops for something, decorating the workspace for a birthday, buying a present for the friend who is down, calling to check in on them when things are bad…and I am not saying that because I think I deserve recognition for it…I’m saying it because it dumbfounds me that everyone doesn’t do those things.  To me it seems like it should be the natural way of things.

This weekend Stephanie (who is very much the same way that I am in this respect) and I threw Noelle a wedding party.  1/2 of the people who RSVP’d didn’t show up. Half.  With no phone calls or prior warning. 

And to me, it is just astonishing.  And infuriating.  Because it was a day to make a friend feel good about her wedding and her happy news.  And how simple is it to just be there? Don’t get me started on how much we could have saved had we known that only 1/2 the people were going to be there, or how we could have planned around the things that they were supposed to bring that they didn’t, or how the first hour was us sitting around waiting and trying to get   of people…honestly, the real thing that made me so mad was that it was for a friend, and I don’t really understand that. 

I have to let this one go after this post, because all day I have stewed over it and gotten more and more angry, and there’s no way to go back and do anything differently, so I am going to move on.  

But, I guess the point is that I am, you know, amazing, and it is just not possible for everyone else to be that amazing as well.  Ha. 

Rounding out my Weekend in Pictures..

Yesterday Steph and I threw our girlfriend Nolle a wedding barbecue. Noelle is the really low-key, doesn’t like being the center of attention kind of girl (a concept that confuses me) so we did a fun 50’s Beach Party by the lake instead of the traditional type of thing.
