Philip Seymour Hoffman has died

“Eventually something you love is going to be taken away. And then you will fall to the floor crying. And then, however much later, it is finally happening to you: you’re falling to the floor crying thinking, “I am falling to the floor crying,” but there’s an element of the ridiculous to it — you knew it would happen and, even worse, while you’re on the floor crying you look at the place where the wall meets the floor and you realize you didn’t paint it very well.” — Richard Siken

“Don’t confront me with my failures I had not forgotten them.” — Jackson Browne

He was a great actor and I am going to miss that voice.

It has been a crazy day-- sexual assault in Bozeman and the perp getting away from the Police station. This is a screwed up world we live in with a lot of screwed up people. No one deserves what happened to that girl, and the guy who ran away showed no remorse. He did something terrible and he couldn't even own up to it. Coward.

I asked someone I know last night if God loved us. She said to be a good author you had to care about your characters. So does God care about us?
