129. Love

been rather absent from here lately - despite the fact that i have some major things to write about and a thousand and one pictures to go along with them.....


i'm in the dumps. a number of reasons why. won't bore you with them.


trying to get myself out of said dumps but it's hard. i get one leg over the side and then fall back in. i'm beginning to think my eyes are going to be eternally puffy and red. that my headaches are never going to cease and that eventually what's left of my withering brain is just going to leak out my ear...


the bright side to all this garbage is chris. no matter what i'm crying about or hopeless about - he's there for me. he understands me - or at least tries really hard too (i hardly understand myself sometimes....). he's amazingly patient. no matter what is going on it's made a bit brighter just knowing that i have him as my best friend.


despite what i may think and feel sometimes - deep down i know i'm the luckiest girl around :)

116. Thank You Bea Arthur

chris and i were out doing a bit of shopping today. as i got back into the car after running into a store he said he had some sad news. then he showed me his phone and there was an article. bea arthur passed away at the age of 86. it made me tear up.....


i have and always will absolutely love and adore The Golden Girls. always.


i remember in college my friend heather and i would take time each night and watch an hour of The Golden Girls and then an hour of Designing Women on Lifetime. now i watch each day after work on the Hallmark channel for an hour. doesn't matter that i've seen each episode a dozen times or more - i still love them! i own 3 seasons on DVD and can't wait to get the rest.


and speaking of those dvd's - chris and i are going to watch a few of the episodes in honor of dorothy. (chris likes them too!)


so here's to you dorothy. thank you for being a friend! you will be missed!


hmph. i don't normally get all sad like this about someone i didn't even know. i just really really loved that show. thanks bea.
