When I was driving home from a doctors appointment this morning around 11 a.m. I saw something I have never seen in my life.  I was on a major highway a few miles from the airport, and saw a large pickup pulled off on the side of the road ahead.  The pickup truck was a large double cab, the type a lot of contractors like to drive.  The doors were open on the side opposite the road, and as got closer I saw man moving rapidly back and forth by the door.  A little closer and it was clear as day, the mans shorts were down around his knees and there was a second set of legs behind the door.  They were having sex.

Never in my life have I ever seen people putting on such a bizarre display in public.  The world I now inhabit since my wife died is something strange beyond recognition.  The end of times is near.  

So I laughed for a few seconds then immediately went into despair.  This was something I would have quickly texted Cheryl, and the loss of her hit me hard right then.  

I need to get to the point where I can laugh without sadness.  

I hope everyone had a better day than I.

Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
