Today, I went to a surprise party for one of my best friends, Kana. It was coordinated by my other friend, therefore, more friends were there. It was fun :). I thought I might include this in my post because it was an overall awesome day spent with buddies, which was nice since it gave us a chance to see each other before a lot of us (including me) leave on vacation.
So, this evening, I had an interesting train of thought. It kind of "woke me up", in a sense. Maybe that's not the right phrase. It was more like an reminder of the past few months I've been living. I had this train of thought about Pipeline To A Cure. I started thinking about how sad it would be, with the big loss to the CF community. This is how my mind 'said' it:
"It's going to be so sad this year. I wonder how Emily is going to be able to write her speech".
It popped into my mind so quickly, that I didn't even realize what I had just thought. It won't be Emily. It will be ABOUT Emily.
Interesting, huh? Maybe this means I think about her so much sub-consciously that she's still alive to me. She is alive to me. Just not in the normal human form.
Anyways, I thought I would share that tidbit. Why? Well, why not? ...I mean, a blog is for blogging about what's on a person's mind. That was on my mind.
I guess that's it. Have a good father's day tomorrow everyone :).

Interesting thought about your friend Emily. It reminds me of when Jason and I were about to get married. (background info-His mom died when he was just 13 and I have never met her ever.) Everyone has done such a good job with keeping his mom's spirit alive in my mind that I actually thought for one second (a very crazy and insane moment) that I could actually come up with a way for her to be at our wedding.
In your moment you just forgot about her not being here because her memory is so with you all the time....my moment was weird...I mean, how would I be able to get her here? LOL!
