A Year Later
It's been one year now, but it still seems like it was yesterday. My parents and I took a trip to Alabama a few weeks ago to see my grandmother and take her out for her birthday. Granny's birthday is two days before Gretchen's but we couldn't do it the weekend due to the anniversary of Gretchen's death. We stopped by the cemetary and left roses for my mom and for Gretchen. It's still odd seeing her tombstone....Today was definitely a rough day, very gloomy all day....

I can't imagine seeing her tombstone.
A year later and I still sometimes have to convince myself that it's not some kind of awful joke.

i know its not a joke, but it sometimes seems like it must be a joke. it just dosnt feel real. i still sometimes picture that she might walk through the doors and say hi or that i nightbump into her somewhere. its still hard to believe.

Misha was right anyone who spent more than 5 minutes with you will remember you forever. We had lost touch since HS but I still think of you fondly and I wish you were still out in the world making stuff happen like only you could. You could inspire.
