Happy Belated Birthdays for Annabel and AmyLiz!! Sorry I missed them.
Military funerals are of the suck. Bleh.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Timelies.
I most emphatically did not go to my 10-year high school reunion, nor have I gone to any of my annual college reunions (Homecoming is a big thing for them. I haven't the faintest idea why, since most of the student body, and specifically the kind of people who go to Homecoming every year, took pains to not be on campus during the weekends). I don't dislike any of my fellow HS alums, but it's over and I have no desire to fly 5+ hours to sit around a bonfire and drink beer. We did that enough in school.
Good morning. I'm apparently wearing the crankyskirt today.

juliana, I had a dream last night that I found out that you used to live near me (specifically, Jamacia Plain, a kind of funky, hipster neihborhood/city adjoining Boston and Brookine) but by the time I found that out you had moved to MN.
I was so bummed out!

DH just called. He has to go to Atlanta for work--flying out Sunday and will be gone for Owen's first birthday on Monday.
I hope there is room in the crankyskirt for two.

I'm glad we went to the funeral because DH got to see over half of his graduating class (they are mostly still very close) and we really got to celebrate Michael's life.
However, watching a parade of military officials and the governor of Indiana try to justify his death as a sacrifice for the freedom of our country and the safety of our children made me nauseous.
I do need to send his widow one of the pictures the groomsmen took at DH's bachelor party, though. All the groomsmen and ushers (including Micheal) stark naked except for their bow ties.

{{Cashmere}} I just caught up enough in the last thread to read about Michael. I'm so sorry. I'm sorry the funeral included justifications. They were probably comforting to some of the mourners, as bad as they were for you.
And that sucks that your husband will miss Owen's 1st birthday. It's just wrong. His employers should understand that, dammit.
Though sharing a crankyshirt with juliana sounds pretty fun.

I'm sure it's the only thing helping some people deal. I just found the polical propaganda that seeped into the event distasteful.

I get that. I find that sort of thing upsetting even when I'm not personally involved.

Oh, urk. Sorry, Cash.
