Not having such a good couple of days…I knew the holidays would be tough. I miss my momma very much. I realize it’s only been a few months since her passing, but I guess I expected a little more of myself than I have.

Tonight, one of our favorite movies is on — The Princess Bride. I’m watching it for the second time, through a veil of tears. I miss her so much. And that’s all I really have to say.

“Life is pain, Highness. Anyone telling you differently is selling something.”

Appreciate your loved ones. Even the ones that can be a pain in the ass. Especially your momma.

    The Princess Bride is an awesome movie…

    “Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.”
    [Inigo advances on Rugen, but stumbles into the table with sudden pain. Rugen attacks, but Inigo parries and rises to his feet again]

    “Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.”
    [Rugen attacks again, Inigo parries more fiercely, gaining strength]

    “Hello! My name is Inigo Montoya! You killed my father! Prepare to die!”

    Count Rugen: “Stop saying that!” [Rugen attacks, twice. Inigo avoids and wounds Rugen in both shoulders, the same spots where he wounded Inigo. Inigo attacks, bellowing:]

    “HELLO! MY NAME IS INIGO MONTOYA! YOU KILLED MY FATHER! PREPARE TO DIE!”
    [Inigo corners Count Rugen, knocks his sword aside, and slashes his cheek, giving him a scar just like Inigo's]

    We roll on the floor laughing over that one. Best scene ever in that movie!
