This past year has flown by. It's been a tough one in a lot of ways. Lost some folks, manda was diagnosed with Huntington's last week. I don't know what the universe has against brains but this is getting silly.

I wish you had had something to say on our last call before you died. I remember asking if you had anything final and you were so tired. Maybe it's selfish of me, but I had hoped for some words to remember you by.

My wife is going to die painfully from an illness and I can do little to prepare. I wish you were here to talk to. I squandered so many years that we could have spent connecting.

I didn't have the chance today, but tomorrow I'll watch a movie like the old days. Perhaps play a round of killing floor. There will always be an open spot in the lobby for you.

Love you.

Hey. Hard to imagine it's already been a year since you left us. I thought that I would leave a message here, maybe try and make it a yearly thing. Been a bit of a crazy year all in all, but still trucking along. I got married just a couple weeks ago. I want you to know that I still think of you and miss you. I guess this is the digital equivalent of writing your feelings and burning the letter huh. I'll see you next year. I love you.

Heat? What is this heat you mention?

This heat is making my head sweat like crazy.

No no, just none of the games I was playing needed Steam.

You're back (or whatever)! I was going to post asking if you'd given up games, or something. ;)
