2008 so far.
I just found out that one of my boyfriend's co-workers died yesterday in a car accident. I don't know any of the details. I'm guessing it was early yesterday morning, though. Hunter was a great kid. Always happy, from what I saw, and always up for a good time. My memories of him include him singing kareoke at Cheers on Sunday nights, the usual favorites were "Fuck Her Gently" by Tenacious D and "Bohemian Rhapsody". He always bought a round of woo-woo's for everyone when we were there. We had a couple conversations about Tallahassee, where I think he was from. I haven't seen him in a while, but he will definitely be in my prayers tonight. I think the last time I saw him was a couple months ago, the night that Dee took me to Ruth's Chris, the night before the FSU-Miami game. We stopped in at the Pot to say hi to everyone and have a drink before dinner. I can't believe he's gone. I know he was one of the few people that made going into work enjoyable for Dee, even though since July he's only been working one night a week at the Pot. I am sorry that he is gone. He will be missed.
So once again, we get another reminder that yes, life is fragile, and you never know when it might end. It makes me grateful that I am alive and that God has done so well to keep me safe so far. I am so incredibly lucky that I have not lost anyone very close to me. I don't know if I could handle it. I pray every day that God will keep my friends and family safe.
I just hope that this is the worst thing that happens this year.
Next Friday, my little sister is getting married. So I will be busy with wedding stuff until then, or at the very least, busy keeping my mother from losing her head. Crap, and I have to write my speech. Or at least think about it. I've heard so many lame maid-of-honor speeches and I don't want mine to be lame.
AH! Why is it always one thing after another???
