Nick sent me this photo he took today. Its the most heartbreaking thing I think I have ever seen. He found it lying in the road.

What could it be about? Who broke it in half? The plea scrawled on it "please listen". Oh man.

maybe will was so excited by whatever was on the disc that he threw it out of the window in a fit of, umm, glee.

This Valentine's Day ... I live in an apartment complex, on the second floor, right next to the stairwell going to the third floor ... about 6:00 PM Valentine's Day night a beautiful bouquet appeared on the stairwell landing. Just sitting there.

It was still there the next day, and the flowers needed water, so I went up to snoop - behind the bouquet was a little card with "I'm sorry" written on it, torn in half.

So I took the bouquet and brought it into my home, re-trimmed the stems, and put the flowers into a lovely vase.

I left the torn card in the stairwell.

I still think the broken CD I posted to start this thread is fucking heartbreaking.

Especially now, as its signed "em", which is the name of the cow that my ex ran off with :/

twelve years pass...

A few weeks ago I was driving and a young gull was walking in my lane, oblivious to the traffic going by. I stopped for it, for quite a while, and waited until it stepped up onto a median. It kept on walking and stepped down into traffic, and was immediately run over by an oblivious motorist. I was still more or less at a standstill, so I saw it die. I yelled reflexively as I saw what was about to happen, but of course that had no effect. This happened on a road I drive on frequently, and for a long time afterward I could see the remains of the gull as I drove by.

That's probably not the saddest thing I've ever seen, but it's the saddest thing I've seen recently.
