rich left yest, although frankly rich wasnt close to us, but he made an impact in the lives of all 3 of us, piggy, L and me. loud and always quick with a rebuttal, he was always the one who held the conversations we had. When he left last nite, the only too-familiar scenario struck me as one that i've had before, like piggy saes deja vu. i hate the goodbyes esp at airports as they make me feel horrid. when i saw E try to control her tears throughout the nite, the effort and strength she showed made me wonder y was leaving always so hard? esp when u have seen the person 24-7 everydae?
