I need to apologize to a few people. I have been neglecting my personal projects lately. Specifically JessicaBlanck.com. Her family has gone on without my help recently and I feel horrible I’ve left such a big piece of what was put together for her memory.

We’ve just passed the 2nd anniversary of her tragic death, along with what would have been her 23rd birthday. I have a new design that I need to spend just a couple more hours on to turn into something usable. I also installed the latest version of WordPress so It will be much easier to access posts and comments.

I will keep everyone up to date here, just search this tag – JessicaBlanck. Cheers.

I chatted my Mom at work today, thru our convo we ended up talking about the new design I’m working on for jessicablanck.com. She told me she had something for me when we got home today. I said ok and wrote it off for the rest of the day. When we got home she went into the living room and said “Not to ruin your evening or anything, but Kassi and I found this the other day…” her voice trailing off in an ominous kinda way.

I come around the corner and she’s handing me this picture:

I just grabbed it and kinda stopped. My heart skipping a beat. I then took a breath and quickly gave my parents a hug and went upstairs. Then I went down and scanned it and brought it up here to post. I didn’t have any pictures of when I really knew her till now.

I’m really happy to get it, and it will always be framed on my desk, but brought up so many memories so fast. Makes me miss her so much.

I know she is in a better place but its hard knowing she’s gone. Anyways, I’m gonna sit and chill for a while now.

Well, this is a heart revealing blog. Many of you know that SPO has a performance coming up this week. In fact, it is about…. 30ish hours from now. I have a part in it where I had to write a script/testimony about pain. obviously i wrote about what happened with Jessica. Well, the script is still not done. I keep adjusting and tweaking, but here is the general idea :

wow.. today has been absolutely crazy. actually, the last.. hmm… month about has been just nuts.

first, just short of a month ago now, i lost a great friend. Jessica Blanck. She was an amazing friend and i can barely get her out of my mind still. it will be a while before this pain leaves i think. see her legacy here.

second, SPO has been crazy recently. We are getting our new program together for the 8th of june. Which is approaching so fast it hurts all our brains. 4 nights a week of practices is good, but shoot guys, let me tell ya, its busy. its comin together, and i know that it will all work out, for sure, its just crazy in the meantime.

third, well, its work. its good, fun, and slowing down. but its web design and i’m not an expert yet. so i have to be constantly learning and pushing my abilities. its good, and i love it. but eventually its time for a vacation. which is coming in july and i can’t wait to go to cali and watch the moto gp races at laguna seca.

thats the 3 strings of my life right now. and they are all tight. i know they will loosen up soon, but right now, i just sleep 12 hours at a spout, stare aimlessly at my comp screen and watch more videos than i know what to do with. its great.

i need to clean the kitchen. joy.

cheers.

As many of you prob know now, I, along with many others, lost a very close friend this last weekend. Jessica Blanck. She was an amazing person, beautiful girl, and always a ton of fun to hang out with.

I was awoken Sunday morning, at about 8:12 *guess* by my sister. She handed me up her phone, I was in the top bunk of my bed. I groggily said “hello?” and Sarah, in as few of words as possible gave the horrifing news.

“Jessica Blanck was killed in a car wreck last night.”

I’m not sure what I said after that, honestly, what I did either. I ended up in P-town with Jason and Cheif. I went down there to be with Jason, really for both of us.

So many people have come to the aid of the family and us friends, and all I can say is thanks. It means so much to us, and after being with the family tonight, I know for a fact that they are in awe at the support. The service is this coming Thursday, May 3rd, 4:30 at Crossroads Community Church. Its an open call, so everyone come. Those words are straight from Rob’s (her dad) mouth.

Also, I set up a website for people to post pictures, memories and thoughts about Jess and to the family and those who have left memories. Its basically an open blog site. jessicablanck.com. Check it out.

Again, to everyone. Thank you for your support and love through this rough time in life.

Cheers.
