Day's absence & In Memoriam

It's December 13. Fuck.

December 13 is typically not a good day for me. Bad things happen. I may be jinxing it as I type (seriously, i'm knocking on wood as I type this--no lie), but it really isn't good. My personal history reveals that terrible things happen, that things go wrong on this day. Not every year, so there's a bit of hope; but it still terrifies me.

So, I'm going to hibernate today and hope no one's health goes down or nothing is lost or anything of that sort. I am very aware that this is selfish and not the mature way to handle it, but I'm not ready to face it.

Dear angels or whoever watches over me: extra help and care would be appreciated for the day. I'll return on the 14th to resume the Blog Challenge and actual, real blog posts.


On a related note...RIP Army Spc. Peter Navarro.

February 5, 1985 - December 13, 2005.

Just as I will always feel your loss, I will always love you, respect you, and remember you. You've been gone four years, but you'll never, ever leave the hearts of those you touched.
