Bun Heads

This is a throw back descriptive from my college days and has many uses that encompass thoughtless, idiocy driven acts by yourself or others you encounter. I have used this term a lot over the years but it never fit so well than for our family on January 8, 2010.

Yes, we have travelled to Chattanooga to spend the day with Tony and David on the first anniversary of Joe's death. We had a great lunch and were lingering until the movie started. Now this was a movie that basically fit into the schedule, not really one that we were all wanting to see. So we headed off to see Country Strong, again honestly we had no idea of the story line. It was good, the songs were better than the dialogue, but it definitely did not take much energy to watch.

So if you have not seen the movie and don't want to know the ending, stop reading now. Finally after an over the top concert, Gwenneth shuts the door of her dressing room and locks it. David and I turn to each other in unison saying "She is going to kill herself" and darn it all if that is what she does! Tony jumps out of his seat holding his head "Mom I had no idea that was the story line!"

So the Bun Heads went to a movie, one of Joe's favorite things to do, and watched someone take their life, one of our least favorite things to see.
