Heath Ledger

I'm not sure why his death is affecting me so much. I think it might be because he's my age. Or because his performance in "10 Things I Hate About You" is seared into my brain thanks to the girls from OCB2. But for whatever reason, I simply cannot get over the fact that Heath Ledger is gone. When I saw the story on People, I actually gasped. I assumed it was a mistake. I kept telling myself that it was a mistake. But it wasn't.

I really have nothing deep or funny or profound to offer. I mean, it's not like I KNEW him. He was just another movie star who played some roles that I enjoyed. But the thought of him not playing any more roles saddens me greatly. Life is so short. And this is making that very real. So sad.
