Trying to get back to normal & Mustaches...

Thanks for everyone's condolences. They mean a lot to me. Now I am trying to get back to normal day to day life. It's hard, but so is life... Here is an email that I wrote to drummergirl today. "Last night on the way to school, I was waiting for some guy to ride by on his bicycle before I turned left & when I looked at him, I saw that he was probably in his mid-twenties, a hipster, but with an old fashioned mullet circa 1989 & a thin-ish mustache & I totally thought to myself; “Nice ‘stache, d*uche”.. Those were the exact words that went through my head. I pondered why I would shorten “mustache” in my own head, but then I arrived at school & had to learn about Vietnam…" THE END.

What can I say?

My aunt died last Thursday. I miss her so much already. I am glad she finally let go because she was in so much pain, her bones were disintegrating, there were so many tumors all over her body including her brain so it's been a tough past couple of months. She died at home with my uncle, my cousin and my mom all with her during her final breath. She was like a mom to me. Being with her and helping take of her this last year has helped me realize that I want to be a nurse. The grief comes in waves. The littlest things will set me off sobbing, but I guess that is all pretty normal. I have a great family and we've all been together laughing & crying. She was a great woman. I love you Aunt Chrissy!

The "Google Image" God's have blessed me yet again...

This is what came up when I key worded "Chinese food alter" in Google image. Instead of an alter or even Chinese food on a table or something, I got a topless William Shatner. You know what, the Google Image Gods are right. Which is better; a Chinese food alter or a topless William Shatner? I think Bill is.

Let me back up and explain why I was looking up "Chinese food alter". I email drummergirl when I am at work and I like to use lots of visuals for our email conversations. Got a lot of time on my hands when I am "working". Anyways, I discovered to my horror, that one of our favorite restaurants, Sampan, is gone. They had the best chicken dish which was called "Daisy Chicken". I have never tasted anything so delicious as Daisy Chicken. Well I was online trying to figure out if they moved or why they closed but I didn't find anything. Drummergirl said it was "All souls day" and we should build an alter to them, hence "Chinese food alter". But instead I got a topless William Shatner.
