I'm feeling a bit under the weather. Not sure if my feeling sick is a result of the not so inviting weather of late or the few people I know who have been sick these past few days. Eh, whatever. Colds happen. Anywho, I started feeling the dry sinuses kick in at work on Friday. They were a tad raw this morning as well, but I didn't truly start to feel sick until I was getting to work. Running around like a maniac wasn't helping at first. Eventually, the DayQuil kicked in and made me a feel a little better. Back-to-School shopping was in full swing today, so I didn't have time to be sick. It's funny, when it's really busy, I really enjoy working at the store. Sure, you occasionally encounter an obnoxious customer. But, for the most part, I have had some great customers these past couple of weeks. I really enjoy it when I get the customer who seems like they are frustrated and I put them in a better mood. Maybe I'm weird, but I like making people smile.
Today started out great the moment I woke up. Magdalene and I went to the Peter Pan diner before I had to go to work. There we bumped into Sean, who was waiting for Rachel. So we combined our two parties and got a table for four. It was great seeing them. Sadly, Celia wasn't able to join us. Perhaps next time. I tried another item from the Peter Pancakes menu; the peanut butter & chocolate chip pancakes. I opted for the whole wheat pancakes, as always. Imagine eating three giant cookies smothered in syrup. That's what this was like. So sugary. Sooooo delicious!
I received some sad news today. A few years back, we (WEIH) played a show with a band called The Waiting Process. Nice guys. A fun band to play with. We later played with them a few more times before they eventually broke up. The bass player, James, was a really nice guy. He used to stop into my store in Massapequa every so often. I never really knew him too well, but I knew he was a good person. James was diagnosed with cancer a few years ago and fought hard for several years to beat it. James lost the fight on Thursday. I don't know the full details, but was told it had something to do with him developing an infection. I know he had gone into the hospital for a bone marrow transplant somewhat recently, so I'm assuming it had something to do with this. James was 24-yrs-old. RIP James.
It's crazy to think of someone so young passing on. I can't even begin to fathom what it must have been like live with cancer. It really makes me realize how precious life is. Sometimes we take for granted how important each moment of life is. We go about our days with little thought about our friends and family. Lately I have been enjoying life more, taking mental notes on each moment. Hearing about James has made me appreciate my life even more. I'm a truly lucky person. I have a great family. Sure, their odd and can often drive me crazy, but I still love them. I have amazing friends, whom I would do anything for. They are like my other family. I work with fantastic people, who are also like family. And I have a beautiful girlfriend who inspires me to be a better person and makes me smile so much that my face hurts. She is my life. I'm constantly surrounded by people I love and trust. Knowing this removes all negativity from my life.
Ok, I'm really exhausted. Goodnight.
