Forever forgetful but never forgetting

I am a forgetful person the majority of the time.  I forget to what I want to say, I forget what I need to get, and I forget what I'm doing at times.  I would take some sort of vitamin for memory but I'm sure I'd just fuckin forget to take it!! But when it comes to this day, March 16th, I will never forget what I was doing, where I was going, or who I was with when my phone rang.  I learned a few hard lessons when that phone rang. 
1.  Sometimes, you may not want to care about someone but that doesn't stop you from actually caring about them.
2.  Life can end when you least expect it.
And the BIGGEST lesson...
3.  Regret can and will haunt you..so be sure to tell those in your life how you feel.

It's been a year and I have not been able to bring myself to deleting your number or texts from my phone.  And when Hope throws up in the floor, I swear I can hear you laughing that loud obnoxious laugh at me!! Jonathan Keith Stroupe, I still miss your friendship, your kindness, and I still miss you!!
