So Vic recently got some bad news. A friend of hers, Maryann, died this past Saturday. She was a professional skydiver- she even trained. She was in a swooping competition and both of her chutes malfunctioned. I only hung out with the girl a handful of times, but she was pretty amazing. She was in her late thirties but looked ten years younger. She kept herself in incredible shape, always had a great attitude about everything, funny as shit... I enjoyed being in her presence. She left behind a little boy. She just seemed like a truly good person.

Yesterday I bought Vic a lot of funny toys, like a foam rocket launcher, to try and cheer her up. We had a little war in her apartment with the foam saucer shooter, so I think it worked to an extent. Then we went to the pool and rented Sarah Silverman's "Jesus Is Magic". I think she's going to have a hard time of it for awhile- I just hope she knows I'm there for her anytime she needs me. I think we're going to Vernon's on Thursday to drink chocolate martini's- in honor of Maryann, because those were her favorite drinks.

Yeah. No bueno.

But, for a laugh...
