My favorite line…

“The lights are dim. Many dressed in black. Every now and then a few sniffs are heard and the white of a hand-kerchief is seen. People speak in a hushed voice. The casket–over there–in the corner. A few walk by to see. A small child starts to cry (loudly). The silence is broken. A scream. ‘That’s not Elvis!!’”

HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!

Thanks for commenting on my blog. Yours is awesome… I love Ryan Adams too!

I heart old journal entries. I cannot believe he wrote those at age 12. The boy was a genius and a comic to boot. Too funny! Great way to start my day. “… if I got caught.” Bwahahahaha!

“Like an onion in a box” is SO Jack Handey…and had me literally snorting water up my nose. That’s so great that his mom kept all of his old stuff. Oh, and I’m so happy to hear you made it back home safely!!

These are awesome! I was giggling…which is not a good thing because I am supposed to be “working” while Matthew does Daddy Daycare :)

More giggling equals more productivity. Or so I like to tell myself. I was never very good at Math.

Twelve? Seriously? What, did his parents not let him watch TV or play? Ha. At twelve mine wold have read, “LiKe I rEaLly LiKe CaScE BuT He DuZnT c ThAt i ExIsT aNd WhAt DoEs iT MaTtEr? MoM HaTeS mY GuTs aNd ThInKs Im ToO DuMb To DaTe PlUs I hAvE tHeSe DaMn BrAcEs”

Props to him.

I know, right? If I recall correctly, most of my journal entries from when I was 12 centered on bemoaning the tragic and untimely death of my pet mouse, Martin.
