You know what they say about raining...pouring, the whole bit.

Rog invited me to the Flaming Lips concert tonight which I had wanted to go to anyway and after the fucking rough week we've all had I wanted to chill out and think.  A bunch of us met up and hung out and I cooled off my depression with some tacos from La Tienda which I hadn't had until today.  Some shocking news delivered a good hard slap and snapped me out of my problems, I guess death makes one think. I think a lot about all of you out there.  I feel like sometimes I don't express it well but I assure you it occurs. 
Some of you have brought me back from the brink, some in physical actuality and some with your tenacity and belief in our friendship and my feelings on that will possibly never have words assigned because "thank you" just isn't enough. 
The 'Lips closed with "Do You Realise" and it made me tear up.

Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize - we're floating in space -
Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun don'-go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

Do You Realize - Oh - Oh - Oh
Do You Realize - that everyone you know
Someday will die -

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun don'-go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize

And as cliche as they may be, the lyrics are comforting and simple and feel very true.  We've suffered a terrible loss.  I'm forced to cut ties to someone I love because I want to spare us pain.  This too shall pass.  I love you all.
