Empty smile, hungry heart

Today was a pretty somber day. I love days where the sun isn't out, it's a little chilly, maybe it rains a little. Good thinking days. Days when you can sit alone and listen to music, paint, read.

We went to visit my nana at the nursing home. It's so sad there, like it's this inevitable state for all of us if we make it to that age. It's sad because she doesn't know where she is and we lie to her. We tell her it's a hospital and that she'll go home soon which isn't true. I don't ever want to be lied to like that. Although it was pretty hilarious when an 80-year-old man told me that my jeans were too tight ("You're like that girl in the commercial that can't get into her jeans").

Today was also Kaitlin's birthday so I went to her house for dinner. It was a great time. We watched VH1 for a while and threw pillows at each other, ate dinner, ate cake, then played Indian Wrestling. I haven't laughed that hard in a really long time. Oh and we played this weird game where you ask each other questions like, "Your neighbors invite you and your spouse over to watch a movie. Surprisingly, it turns out to be a hard-core porno flick. Do you stay and watch?"
