This entry will be super long containing things about my Aunt's funeral, family stuff, the coldest Opening Day and plenty of pictures from the whole month of March really. I'll be nice and make a cut for you all.
My Aunt's funeral was tough, but not as tough as it probably would've been if it was an open casket. Looking at the person always gets you. My cousins were beyond amazing and totally like supporting me. I can't explain how or why, but they were just there for me. There were so many people that the funeral home wasn't big enough, and I'm sure everybody got there mail late that day as many letter carriers took a longer and earlier lunch to go to the funeral. The first thing we all did when we got to the luncheon was get a drink, because we know that's what Aunt Patti would've been doing. Later on, I went by my cousins house and watched a few movies with Gina and Lindsay. Let's just say that Elizabethtown sucks and stealing brownie/cake from the bratty younger sister is amazing. On Thursday my Uncle Jimmy took out my parents, Uncle Tom and Angie, Trudy (my Aunt's Mom) and myself out to dinner to Dobies. That place is amazing...and my Aunt worked there once upon a time. I'm getting better and less freaked out about the whole thing, but there are still so many unanswered questions.
I've dont plenty of other random stuff in the mean time like go to the KRanch, say unappropriate things, worked, and whatever else. The details however, just don't seem that important right now.
OPENING DAY
Of course, in our 3rd consecutive Opening Day the weather had to be absolutely shitty. Thank the Lord that it stopped raining before we got the parking lot, but puddles were all around and it was nothing but a whole 30 degrees (if that) with gail force winds thanks to our wind advisory. Tailgaiting wasn't fun, no matter how many beers you drank. Then you'd have to wait inline for the port o potty which they only have 6 for every 1,000 people, and it no matter what there's always pee on the seat. When it came down to grilling Dave had brought the hot dog buns, but alas he forgot the hotdogs!! We stole a few from Chubbs friends and they were oddly spicey. For the first time ever, we went into the stadium before the game started because we were just that cold. The game was fun and there was a fat man who was running around getting people riled up. We had an abundance of bags of peanuts for some odd reason and I kept offering them to the fans who surrounded us. At one point Jesse and I got up to walk around and on the way back I said that we had to get the both of us and Dave and Erika a beer. My dumbass forgot my idea down in my purse by our seats so I went down to get it. But then i couldn't find where we were sitting because in the meantime Erika and Dave had gone to smoke, but apparently didn't because Erika forgot her cigarettes. So Jesse had to wait in 2 lines to get a total of 4 beers. That's so stupid...but I guess I understand. The game ended and the Brewers won 5-2. We got outside and suddenly the sun was shining, the winds had died down a bit and it wasn't that bad out. We sat by Chubbs truck and some beer and chips as traffic cleared out of the parking lot and then we went to Erika's where she typed an email that I read to her to one of my professors. Jesse left to go to work, because he's insane and Dave went to bed at like 6pm. Erika and I ordered a pizza and then watched Deal or No Deal. We both went to bed at 9 and I woke up at like 11 because I heard someone walking around and when I opened my eyes it was Erika and I jumped a mile high. Then I woke up every 2 hours and watched as a neighbor across the street from them got their car towed at 3am and ran after the tow truck yelling "hey! hey! stop!". I dreamt that I got a tattoo on my arm, and helped an obese lady learn to get over her fears of jumping into a pool. Then I woke up for good at around 8am when EMRY their cat walked on my face. Opening was fun, but would've been so much better had the weather been nice.
And now...for the pictures from the month of March.
Kelly's Homecoming
It takes too much effort to take a decent picture with this many drunk people.

The only reason Erika and I went was because of Becky.

These were the kids next to us. They liked singing to our songs.
This is when we got too cold and smoked in the car.

If you look closely to the yellow pole, you'll see the fat man without his shirt.
Erika was beating Dave up after the game.
I don't know whats going on here.
That shit is nasty.
Yea...again, not sure.
