Idiots

Dad's watching Reagan's funeral in the other room... I wandered in, and they had just given Mrs. Reagan the flag that had been covering her husband's casket. She then went over to the casket, and did something I bet she's been trying not to do all week - cry. Everyone was silent, and all I could hear was that poor woman crying... and the damn cameras clicking. Show a little respect, huh? In my not-so-humble opinion, all cameras should have been turned off at that point. Let the poor lady grieve in peace. I walked away - the least I could do.

My mom watched that. She was crying and dabbing a tissue to her eyes the whole time, and I just wished that I could be that emotional over things like that. Instead, I cry over the death of Mufasa. *Rolls eyes* The world is so twisted.
