Today, I hung up the phone and went to tell my dad that I’d finished switching all the utilities into my name. Then I remembered I was switching them into my name because of his death. FML
Today, my husband surprised me by cooking a romantic dinner. I asked him why the sudden gesture. His response? "The cable was out." FML

Tell your dad he'll meet his favorite character soon enough if he doesn't turn it back on.

Denial is a preliminary stage of grief, my friend. Hang tight for the long ride.

This is a legit reason to turn off your cable....I see no wrong here. Rest in peace beloved character. (for you bitches who post spoilers this is how you mourn a character without messing it up for the others)
