rip ted kennedy

for some reason, i’m feeling sad about this. it’s reminding me of jfk and rfk (who died way before my time) and mlk jr. (also before my time). granted, i was already feeling sad today (read ‘rip daphne’ piece).

well, there goes an american dynasty. what do you say?

maybe if they get healthcare reform passed, congress can name the bill in his name.

time for me to hit the sack.

I reminded myself a few minutes ago that the only thing worse than grieving is not allowing myself to grieve. ( Read more )
