He must have been livid. What a seriously shitty thing to do.
He actually handled it all pretty well. Reminded himself to breathe and rolled his eyes at her. At the end he wrapped it up well and thanked everyone for being there for the family.
When he, the godparents, and the principal spoke were the only things that weren't horrifying. And when he spoke was the only time Bob and I cried. (Technically I only cried because I saw Bob cry, and he NEVER cries-he really never attends funerals either).
No alternative memorial. Those of us who are friends of the father and his wife joined them at the bar where my husband works and had a mini memorial. Which reminds me, I need to find the picture of the kid, sweetfaced with green hair at one of the crawfish boils for my friend.
Good holy god, Daisy. I just don't even know how to respond to that.
In much better stuff: It seems my husband brought the dog into work with him. [link]
Bitches, I need your help. I need a mascara that will not smudge and I have yet to find one. I have long lashes and oily skin. My mascara usually ends up in a smudge under my eyes. I'd also like to pay less than $15 for a tube. Any suggestions?
DJ, I'm aghast at that. That's the kind of horrorshow I wouldn't buy in a movie as I'd think it too unrealistic.
I could take classes from Roy Freaking Underhill.
Holy crap, I didn't know he gave classes! He is on the Short List of People to Have Nearby in an Apocalypse.
I like Define-a-lash waterproof.
Connie, he just opened up a school about half an hour from me. I'm contemplating the treadle lathe class.
DJ, there are no words. What a horror. Thank goodness you guys were there to be a bastion of strength (and sanity) for him.
ChiKat, since I had to give up my favorite (Full-n-Soft, by Maybelline) for non-cruelty-free issues, I've had really good luck so far with Almay's mascara. Also long lashes, also oily skin (also want the budget-wise-ness of a drugstore brand) and haven't had a problem with it landing on my cheeks - except when I wash my face. That might be my only complaint - it's not even the waterproof, but it still doesn't like to come off with just soap and water.
I'm sure there's more, but as always,
no, is too much, let me sum up.
