It's been a rough week, if I do say so myself. Even though I was completely elated to finish and post my Big Bang, that seems to be the only bright spot.
My 87-year-old grandmother had to be taken down to the hospital in the ambulance because she fell face first in her kitchen. She's got extensive bruising to the face and facial fractures around her left eye socket. The eye is bloodshot and irritated, but seems largely unharmed thankfully. She'll be feeling pretty icky for a few weeks, but the doctor says everything should heal fine.
Can you believe that's the good news?
The bad news is that one of my good friends was killed early Monday morning in a violent car accident. I didn't find out about it until Tuesday because I a) don't get the newspaper and b) didn't see the blurb that was posted on the local paper's website. I literally just spoke to Chris eight hours before he was killed. I think the only reason I haven't had a major "Holy shit he's gone," moment yet is because we've ben so ungodly busy at work and I haven't let my mind settle.
Paco...I'm gonna miss you babe. You were a sweetheart, a wonderful friend and one hell of a dart player. I'm always going to laugh when I think about Carmen letting me share you with her and I regret not getting a chance to spend more time with you before you left.
