In short, 2010 was not my best year, but then again, it wasn't my worst either. Good times, bad times, you know I've had my share.
I know it's popular to reflect on the past year, but right now, I'm having a hard time getting past last night. Around 2am or so, CST, I found out that an old friend of mine passed away unexpectedly. It made for a very long, sleepless night. Tweets, texts and fb messages were flinging back and forth all night long. Everyone, including me, was of course very curious as to the details, the why, the how, etc., but in the big picture, the details are as such: a sweet man that had a lovely family that adored him has left our planet forever. R.I.P. Stimy
Of course, I know that I'm now at the age where stuff like this is going to happen more and more, but knowing that doesn't make it any easier. My friend Curt so eloquently noted in the wee small hours of the morning; it's also still at the age where the early departure of dear friends is still in fact, shocking. I am shocked and I am saddened. And I sincerely hope that I never become "used to" losing my friends.
As I bid adieu to 2010, I send love and light to Stimy's family and friends and everyone else that plays a part in mi vida loca.
xoxo!
