I walked around in a daze most of today. I had meant to IM him this weekend about the new Jack the Ripper theory and his thoughts on "River" with Stellan Skarsgaard. The only reason I was waiting until this weekend was so we could get into one of our IM marathons.
I never met Nick in person but I felt like I had a real friend and his passing has had a profound effect on me.
I know it is silly but another friend posted a video of how I saw Nick. I reposted it on my FB page and tagged you and Lyric. To me, he was generous with his time, his thoughts and even though he didn't have a lot, he gave me so much.
to you, Lyric, Kat and everyone else whose life he made better.
