Oh, No

Decided I would sit in bed tonight and begin reading Ronnie Spector's memoir, Be My Baby.

The copy I have is the newly-published 2022 edition, hardbound, and as I was opening it I casually scanned the notes on the jacket.

And learned that Ronnie Spector had died on January 12th of this year.

I don't know why I hadn't realized this but, in any case, it really rocked me back for a minute.

So I'm not gonna start my reading tonight. I need some time to process this, to come to terms with what feels like a profoundly altered perspective.

I'm not sure if I can explain, or even understand, why that is.

I just know that I need to do this...
