A sort of Anniversary…
Feb. 20th, 2009 08:01 pmHey all,
Just checking in. Some of you who were friends with me last year know that I had something pretty horrible happen right in my neighborhood, and you can check this post if you didn't know.
Well, today is the anniversary of their deaths. Matt has recently been in court and has pled guilty for his crimes, and will most likely be sentenced to life. Maine isn't a state where we apply the death penalty, so he'll probably spend the rest of his life in jail, in a high-security cell. I'm not sure where they'll send him, but it'll be far away from here.
I think… I think I'll always remember that day. I was on errands today, and was in the DMV with a friend when I glanced up at the wall and saw the date in huge numbers, and my mind went blank. I got really quiet, and am still feeling a little withdrawn. Something like that really hits home, and I doubt I'll ever forget it.
