Fantasy Boy Draft

Nov 16, 2005 21:13

So the podcasts are working out okay. I've definately been able to get some things off my chest, but sometimes... I dunno, I guess sometimes it just seems like more to see it all written out. Guess that's why I'm here now.

Tonight was "fantasy boy draft date night". Brooke's boy draft blew up even further when Tim decided that we all needed to take our picks out on a date. I wasn't expecting too much out of Mouth to be honest. I just figured we'd go grab some burgers then maybe a movie. I guess that shows even the best of us can be pleasantly surprised.

I tagged along with him to an old folks home where I got to meet Mel. This amazing old guy. We broke him out and went to the speedway. We were having an awesome time until Mouth broke it to me that he has Alzheimer's Disease. It broke my heart seeing him after that. I know that we had all that fun tonight and he won't remember any of it in the morning. We got to talking and I asked him why he kept coming back. He told me that no one should die alone.

When he said that, everything that has been happening with Ellie over the last few weeks really sunk in. You would think that me, Little Miss My Mom Died, would understand death better than anyone. Maybe I'm not as smart as I think I am. All I know is that I have to try to find Ellie again. She doesn't deserve to die alone. No one does.
