engaging conversation

we had some neighbors over last weekend [the ones we like] and one of them brought up how their now son-in-law asked for their daughter's hand in marriage. it made me chuckle because it was funny. and it made me remember this story. when i met my husband before he was my husband i lived in grand rapids. and he lived in midland. i guess i had to move away to find someone in midland. anyway, he had a ring made and before he proposed to me he thought he would take it over to my parents' house and show them. now, my husband's name is jeremy. but everyone calls him jay. one night he called my parents' house. my dad answered. my now husband told him it was jeremy and was explaining to my dad that he had something to show them. and he wanted to know if they would be home. my dad said they would and hung up the phone. after he hung up the phone my dad turned to my mom and said, 'i don't know who the fuck jeremy is but he's coming over.'

this can't be right



after my reunion was over last weekend we ended a great trip with none other than breakfast. at the texan. with good friends. in the middle of my inhaling, of some of the best breakfast food ever, i glanced down at my placemat. you know, the paper kind. with all sorts of advertisements. please take note of the second ad down in the first column. in particular the second line underneath the company name. nevermind the company name at this point [if you can't read it you can click on the image to enlarge]. immediate cremations? like for when you murder someone? what the hell? and it's a society?
