Today was kinda weird. I woke up feeling just Blah. I realized that today was the day that Shawn was being buried. Goodbye forever. I talked to a friend from home to see how it went and there were a ton of cops, veterans, and soldiers there all standing at attention. I guess they shut down York St. and Roosevelt Rd. (Which are huge streets, for all you bufu folks) for the service, and there were about 15 squad cars behind the hearse. So sad! Wish I could've had a proper goodbye. But, you have to make sacrifices in life, and at least I was able to go home yesterday to say my goodbye!
I also hung out with Doggie a lil today. I just wish we were still "cool." (No other words to describe it.) I felt weird hanging out with him, not being affectionate. After the week I have had, I just wanted him to hold me forever, like he did before. Just to be in his arms. And having that support you can only get from a significant other. I already miss that. Which shows how much he means to me. We'll see over the next three weeks I guess.
Marie came over to hang out with me tonight while I was on duty. We talked a lot. It means so much to have a support group and friends to lean on, even if it means to act goofy and have a polyester dance party,(right girls?) to make you laugh. But, she gave me flowers, and a really sweet card. Thanks for always being there hun!
