Shootings...

Last night, I found out about Christina Grimmie and was incredibly heartbroken. I'd never gotten the chance to meet her or attend one of her concerts, but I followed her and her music and always expected that I would someday when she was in Chicago or something worked out. I still am in disbelief and want to believe that it's not true. I think it's the story that really bothers me - this guy didn't even know her personally. Yet something made him want to drive to her concert just to try to harm her. I don't get it... Wishing the best for her family through this hard time.


I'm a huge fan of mash-ups, and she made one of my favorites with Mike Tompkins.


Following that news, I woke up this morning to hear about the shooting at the Orlando Night Club Pulse. I'm in even more disbelief. Why? I research school shootings and have read countless stories. At one point, I figured that I'd desensitized myself to mass shootings like this, but I was totally wrong. My heart goes out to all the victims.
