Ok it's close to bed time, BUT!
but... I had something to say so here I am, saying it.
I feel very lucky.
Why?
Easy, I'm alive. I have a boyo I adore, I know who I am and what I am, I know all this and more.
Today kitkat told me that The Prids were in an accident whilst touring down in CA. 2 of them have major issues and the other 2 are banged up badly, but not horrible. The Prids happen to be a PDX band and friends of kitkat's (one of whom I know). All of a sudden, everything they knew is totally different, with hopes that nothing but recovery await the 2 with severe injuries. Their van is totalled and who knows how the equipment is. I can't imagine what M is going through other than trying to get her life back into focus... or even wondering about things that might not be later.
I'm lucky. I'm really lucky.
However, I think that aside from feeling this, I also have to remember it as a warning for that which I think I have plenty of time for today, may not be there tomorrow. Things change in an instant, in a second, in 15 minutes. Whatever the time, it's still so small that we can't even think we'll have time to get used to it.
So what are you waiting for?
Do what you're supposed to be doing already!
...sheesh...
my thoughts go out to The Prids and anyone else that was traveling with them....
