Tonight,I am feeling mixed emotions.I received some shocking news today on the TV news in my area today around dinner time.This is affecting my mood tonight.I had a pretty good day today until I heard the news.At the moment,I am feeling really depressed.
This evening,when I got home from running another errand,I was watching the 6:00 pm news and I received some shocking tragic news.An old schoolmate of mine who used to come to the place where I entertain at once in a while was struck and killed by a car early this morning around 1:00 am.He and a friend were leaving a convenience store when a speeding car stuck and killed him and injured the other guy,but didn't stop.It just kept right on going.My friend and schoolmate was pronounced dead at the scene when the paramedics showed up while the guy that was with him is listed in critical but stabile condition at the local hospital.They later found the car that was involved at a local Indian reservation burned out by the owner.But the car's front end showed only minimal damage on the driver's side.The license plates were also missing but they did get the VIN number and they are going to investigate and hope that they catch the person that was involved really soon.I want to see justice brought for that friend of mine and see that guy who hit him get his just desserts for this.That driver could have stopped and see if those guys were alright but they didn't.I hope that they catch that person soon.
The day started out promising.I woke up and ate a light breakfast and I also watched another episode of my copy of the first season of Friday The 13th:The Series.I also did my personal PC work.While doing that,I registered a few more bills at the Where's George site.After finishing,I washed my hair and made my bed.I left to run the errand and I had a small bowl of chili over at a local Wendy's.I was feeling pretty good and I had a feeling of accomplishment that I got everything done.I headed straight home after that.
That was when my mood considerably changed.Upon hearing about the death of that friend of mine,my mood went from gladness to sadness.I ate dinner and I decided to catch up on some much needed last minute personal PC work.Before doing that,I called another friend of mine and I learned that his live in girlfriend was related to that schoolmate of mine and they are hoping to hear when the funeral will be.I am hoping to hear about that soon because I am going to go to it.I rarely attend funerals.I don't like them.But this time,I am going to have to make an exception.I am going to pay my respects and bid hime a sad but fond farewell.
On another note,my night of entertaining the crowd went great.It was yet another great night.I had a blast and there were quite a bit of people there.I had a great time and I was really exhausted when I came home.I did have a pretty decent night's sleep.But after what happened tonight,I am not feeling as good as I was when the day began.I am going to miss him.He used to occasionally come into the place where I entertain and it was always great to see him.Now he's gone and I am feeling mighty down.
Despite that,I am thinking of going out and having a drink anyway and I am hoping to have some great conversations with the guys there tonight.
Right now,I am relaxing.The weather currently is windy and wet.It is also pretty cold outside.We're supposed to get more rain tomorrow and for the first two days of the week.
Tomorrow is my day off.I am hoping that whatever I choose to do will benefit me in a positive way.
That was my weekend and my hopes for the start of the new week ahead.
