RJ Mitte

I just found out about everything with RJ Mitte and I'm truly speechless. The last few months have been my first time watching Breaking Bad and just a couple hours ago i was watching S04E11. When I got to that moment where Walt Jr. was at Walt's house, when he was talking to him about his father and all that, yk i really underestimated the character until that scene, as he told him that at least when he saw him crying he was being "real," even though that wasn't really the case. I knew nothing about the actor's life, but he definitely did a good job, an awesome job, and should be remembered for that.

My ex of 5 years died to suicide. Before that happened I would listen to music to escape my troubles. My favorite band was Nirvana.

I couldn't listen to them for weeks. I saw Kurt Cobain as a real person and the grief his family and friends must have felt.

When I saw her mom at the memorial service, staring blankly past me as she greeted me in a flat voice...I'll never forget that. My sister went with me. Said I didn't look good after that.

I think of Rj's family in this time. As well as all of those who knew him well. Like Bryan, Anna, Dean and Aaron. Hope they are doing well as they can be.

I'm sad about this.

Rj, RIP buddy. Hope your pain is gone.
