Bridal Shower & Doctor Who

Today was my friend, J_'s bridal shower. It was a surprise for a MONTH until 15 minutes before, when apparently J_ saw an e-mail I sent the driver of the car, on her dashboard. Oh well, we had a lot of fun and Jen really liked her purple and black dalek...she kept hugging on it and was so glad I came up from San Diego to be there.

Not a lot of knitting today...
I am sitting here, completely emotionally rung out after watching the latest episode of Doctor Who (the Doctor's Daugther) NO SPOILERS. I cried for a good half an hour after it was over. Not because of the content of the episode, but because it reminded me of how much I really do miss my dad.

It will be 5 years next month that he died. I don't think a day has passed that I don't think of him in some way. Usually it isn't a painful thing, they are happy little memories

Lately, it has been sad, I think it is the whole going back to school thing and I feel a bit lost? Maybe it is the anniversary coming up next month. Maybe it is that stupid IHOP "Tour de French Toast" commercial they play non-stop. My dad died of a massive heart attack on his bicycle while on a prolonged ride. Seeing those stupid cyclists every 10 minutes on the screen really rubs the salt in it. There, I have finally said it out loud.

Miss you, Geez!


And let's not forget my uncle Turtle who is also in this picture who died the same week as dad...
