i made 2 gallons of iced tea this morning and it's already gone. this afternoon, high on constant comment and lemon lift, i decided to rearrange the living room so j.russ and i would feel like we moved. it looks really awesome downstairs, but upstairs we just left a bunch of crap in the corner so maybe i can work on it when we get back.
i had been planning on going to philadelphia this weekend to see corey and go to the dungen / woods show and have corey show me around to the punk frat and all that but unfortnately we aren't going because my grandma died.
my grandma was probably the most amazing woman i have ever met. she is my first memory. she was an outré country girl, a coal miners daughter who entered a beauty competition because she had the biggest tits in town, a spitfire girl who graduated as valedictorian and skipped her all-expenses paid college education to move to new york city from teeny tiny dante va. she spent most of my mom's childhood drinking bud and smoking, but changed her ways when she had a heart attack. she became a little health nut, started doing yoga and walking two miles every night. she was incredibly smart and never once lost her cognition. i am going to miss her so much. i can't even think about what christmas is going to be like - she always got up at 6 am to start making christmas dinner, and filled her living room to the brim with presents for the whole family who all came to her house. at erin's wedding she was her usual self, telling stories of how ashton's firefighter friends were flirting with her and flitting around in a pink cocktail dress that she said made her look like "granny barbie". she went on erin's honeymoon with her to south carolina and said it was the best beach trip ever. tomorrow we are going to the visitation at the funeral home and friday we have the funeral. i don't want to look at ashton and erin (my cousins) because i know i will just not be able to stop crying. erin's pregnant with twins, at least granny knew before she died. she would have been the world's best great-granny too. ugh i am really unable to process it all. i can't understand why she's gone.
i got my nose pierced on monday as a treat for myself. will it make it through allergy season?
