This morning at around 8:00am, a friend of mine shot himself. I didn't see it coming - though maybe I should have - and I'm only now at liberty to start feeling.
In the most literal sense, we were not "close," but he was my oldest and one of my dearest friends. He single handedly pulled me through one of the more difficult and awkward times in my life, and the simple fact he existed made suffering a little easier to bear.
I don't know why I'm posting this here instead of LJ. I guess because I'm not ready for it to be real yet. (Nothing personal.)

I'm sorry for your loss. I know it's been a really rough day for you.
