One of my good buddies is sick... in a bad way. I found out yesterday that JK from Spider Food is in the ICU with major liver problems. Doesn't even really know where he is apparently. He liked to drink in his younger days (hell, he's under 40) and it's apparently caught up with him.

I've done little today but think about him and hope he pulls through. It doesn't help that his site's server took a major nose-dive, killed by Klez, so I spent the entire day working on his server. I couldn't even escape thinking about him because I was on his site all day :-(.

I didn't think something like this would really bother me as much as it has. My shoulders are tight and my jaw is sore from clenching my teeth all day. I've been tearing up on and off all day (I'm no "macho" man) and haven't been able to think all that clearly. I hadn't talked to him in almost a year, and then he popped online last week to say hi. Took off to call his host because his server was starting to act up, and next I know he's in critical condition. I haven't had to deal with something like this yet, and I have to say it's certainly no fun.

I'm not the religious type, but if you are, I'd ask that you keep JK in your prayers. Here's to hoping he comes out the other side...

Consider it done.. call it prayer creep, but I added his family and his friend Dan. I'm here if you need anything.
