alibaliim really gonna try to actually update more often.. this is ridiculous.
honeymoon was amazing. i'll write it all out some other time.. 4 nights in Rome and then a 10 night cruise around italy, france, and greece. i'd get married just to do it all again.
weekend of June 25th there was a wedding at my parents house.. mark and i went out there.. wedding went fine. you wouldn't have even thought it was the first wedding there. we found out that morning that my grandmother passed away. mark spent the day on the phone booking everyone flights.. my mom spent the day bitching saying she was "stressed out" and wondering why paul couldn't stay behind and watch the inn. she had no right ot be stressed out.. at least her moms still alive.. my dad coulda been stressed and he handled it all fine. they weren't going to tell me or melissa until after the wedding but seeing as my mom was actually awake at like 745 when i woke up, obviously something was up. he didn't think we'd be able to work thru the day properly if we knew about it. you'd think he woulda realized that i get my work ethic from him. if i gotta do a job, its gonna get done.
flew down to florida on sunday. met a lovely flight attendant who told us all about her pet horses and pig. even showed us pictures.. very weird lol
funeral was on monday. she looked so tiny in the box. my aunt wanted to have a closed casket cause "ma woulda wanted it that way" bull shit. i realized my dad and i cry the same way. we both hold it in until our cheeks our puckering and then just let it all out and go to hug someone. :(
basically everyone in my aunts family said something during the ceremony (is that what'd you call it? i dunno). no one in our family did. there's nothing to say. she was 90. i was 3 when my grandfather died so i remember her "boyfriend" Sidney. But god forbid someone mentions him .. my aunt woulda had a heat attack. Every event that my grandma shoulda been at of my family's she wasn't. Ellen wouldn't let her. My sister graduated high school, i graduated elementary school, and my dad turned 40 all within 4 days of eachother. We had a huge party. Instead of coming to the party my grandmother was sent to switzerland with Lauren to drop her off at school for the summer.
Meanwhile for the last 5-6 years or so, she doesn't remember anything. When i saw her in January i was the pretty girl sitting on the bed. It just bothers me that I never got the memory of her at my functions.. instead she was with Ellens kids, cause ellen made her go and didn't give her a choice. But was Lauren at the fucking funeral? Nope. She was on her way to israel.. couldn't even postpone her damn flight a few hours so she could go to her beloved grandma's funeral. At this point i'm so done with that side of the family. I seriously don't know how my dad's put up with it for 50 years. My grandma's house was willed to my father, Ellen sold it a few years ago and didn't tell my father. how can you do that? my sister would never think of doing that to me.. i guess thats cause me and melissa actually have a sibling relationship.
My dad's going down there sometime soon though to pick out stuff that he wants. Ya know, stuff Ellen already gave to her precious son. Like my dad's fathers things. Why the fuck should David have that over his son? I don't get it. I'm getting aggraveted so onto a new subject.
We're moving in 2 weeks. going to coram. its a nice place i just dont wanna say i live in coram. i worked in coram.. coram isn't known for nice things lol.. oh well.. really not that big of a deal.
abnormal psych starts tomorrow.. i already wanna know when it ends. i dont even know where the classroom is.. some classroom in the library.. i didn't even know there were classrooms in the library.
last night we ate at marks parents house. they made so much food... we had mussels and crabs and steak and veggies and strawberries and cream for dessert. we'd eat there more often, but who can eat that much so often?
speaking of which, right now i'm eating a salad the size of my head. and it is good.
