re: Crying over the death of a celebrity

I was chilling on the beach with friends and family when the news of MJs death broke. I had been drinking and had a good buzz. Sitting in a chair under an umbrella with my wife and a couple other friends just watching our teen and younger kids doing beach stuff. When my buddy’s wife Julie said “oh my God! MJ died!” It took a few seconds to process before I flew into an emotional breakdown. I just went limp and tilted over out of my beach chair belly and face first into the sand. And sobbed uncontrollably for awhile. I couldn’t be consoled. I wanted to be alone. Once I was able to gather myself I got up and grabbed a boogie board and just floated out about a mile not caring where the current would take me or if I would be eaten by sharks. I was hauled back in an hour later against my will by a lifeguard on a jet ski.
