This is probably completely obvious, but I don't deal well with death, especially the death of my peers.  Lately however, it seems as if people I'm distantly connected with, more or less, are dying all the time.  I'm sure there's a lesson there, but my mood is too dark to grasp it.

Ah well.  I'll be fine in a few days.  This just seemed more random than most.  Life may be like that, but I don't have to like it.
