I woke up this morning to the news that BB Kings is dead.  It is hardly surprising news given his illness but it still stings.  Loss is of course a crucial part of human life, unavoidable but I am going to go ahead and just say it’s everyone’s least favorite part.  Like, for example I watch Vampire Diaries because I am super cool and I had no idea that Nina Dobrev is leaving the show.  But she is apparently and I discovered that last night watching the show.  Now I know.  Celebrity deaths, characters leaving shows, shows ending, these are pretty minor on the scale of the end of things but we can still feel grief over them.  Because of course what we are grieving is the loss of possibility.  There are no more possible paths for a life to take, for an experience to take, the path has been decided and it is over. Which is largely silly in many ways when we are talking about TV shows or such.  It is different when thinking about a life but then BB King has sucha  back catalog it feels ungrateful or greedy to want more.  And… I don’t know, I am rambling, I thought I had a point but I do.  I will miss getting to see Nina Dobrev on my TV every week.  I’ll just leave it at that, sorry if you read all of this mess.  Today I want to fuck Nina Dobrev.
