Another One of My Men Has Died in Mature Size Bites

Alan Rickman. Michael Collins and Something the Lord Made. Most of all, Harry Potter.

My co-worker told me this morning that he had passed away, and I freaked out. Completely freaked out.

It was David Bowie. Now, it is Alan Rickman. What is so heartbreaking is that I watched Something the Lord Made last weekend. I loved that movie because of Alan Rickman. I love Michael Collins because it is old school Liam Nesson, Aidan Quinn, and Alan Rickman.

It is a hard pill to swallow when you have two creative geniuses die within the same week. Their talent is an inspiration. They will be missed so much because their absence makes their presence brighter.

While I was driving this morning, I thought about Randall. I cried when I heard “When I See You Again.” I cried on that part “It has been a long day, without you my friend…”

This week has been a very long week. I’ve felt insulted and not valued at work. I have felt completely dismissed. In the car, all I thought about was missing Randall being physically here. Physically here.

I am fighting to make sure that my health is right so I can live over a hundred. I know that Randall is cheering me on wanting me to make it because it is one of my major dreams.

It just has been a long and challenging week. I am going to get through it and come out stronger, Yo.
