demi-friend tragedy, horrible but nobody you know 

So, my auldest living friend was apparently killed in a car accident on Tuesday. I just found out about it this morning and then immediately had to go out, so still processing.

What's worse...

(Don't keep reading if you don't want worse.)

...is that it happened because her youngest, Lizzie, 18, was driving and ran a stop-sign.

@Harena and I are both Lizzie-fans, and can only imagine what she's going through now.

tragedy cont. 

I meant to add that we weren't close, so I'm not emotionally shattered by this, but... we had a long history (met in 1983, during the time when Jenny was missing), and... although there was a lot about her I didn't like much, I liked and admired her overall.

I'm just kind of in shock.
