The Streets of Heaven are Too Crowded With Angels Tonight
Can 2008 start over? preferably RIGHT now?
What is it this year? we're knocking out the musicologists one by one?
First Dr Hartzell and now Anj. For those who may not have heard, a truly amazing person was taken from us: anjenue (formerly rosesanguina was killed in a car accident last night. There's a community set up in her memory for people to leave thoughts and rememberances and found at we_love_you_anj.
My wish... if there are people you love, tell them. If there are those you should talk to more... don't put it off. Anj and I always said we'd talk more... and now it will never come to pass. I've lost two truly amazing people in my life within the span of a few short months. I'm a wreck. I have to go through my external haddrive and pull off all the music I've gotten from her over the years.
I'm reposting what I said in we_love_you_anj
Anj and I met several years ago, and I cannot remember if it was through playing together at the_leaky or if it was through fandom. But we were both music history majors. She getting her master's in ethnomusicology and I had just picked up my second major in undergrad in music history. I remember thinking how cool it was to actually meet someone who was interested in the same field I was.
One thing led to another and we began to talk a lot. Not every day, but we'd catch up now and then and I always cherished every one of our conversations. Between our love for all things RENT to music stuff... to what have you.
We always swore we'd talk more, but it never came about. Now, it's one of my biggest regrets.
We may not have been close but we were good friends. I still have the christmas card she sent me last year. The kind words she said... I think that's what I'll always remember is her kindness.
Anj... you were taken from us all far too soon.
To quote The West Wing... "The streets of heaven are too crowded with angels, but every time we think we have measured our capacity to meet a challenge, we look up and we're reminded that that capacity may well be limitless."
You will be missed. ♥
