some of you will know what i'm talking about - even who i am talking about - in this blog post and others of you won't. but anyway..........
today my friend, michael davidson, would have turned 30 years old.
michael was killed in a car wreck in august of 2004. it's hard to believe that it's been 14 years. he was riding with my cousin, douglas, and two other friends, leslie and page.
i've wondered over the years how michael would look right now. he would surely have taken me up in his plane by now - and riding in the car that had been specially ordered for him before he died (it came in not too long after the funeral).
i've got a picture of michael in a frame in my bedroom. the frame was mailed to me my senior year in high school....no card.....just "sSm" engraved at the top (my maiden name was suzanne michelle smith) and down in the bottom right hand corner "mhd" was engraved (for michael hollis davidson). after i opened it, i just went in my room and cried. no card was needed.
there are other things going through my mind of fun times on lake chicot with michael and douglas, to the last time that i talked to him. but i could sit here and type away - and i need to go to sleep.
happy birthday, sweet friend.
