Oh Amy …

Folks, I’m really broken up about this Amy Winehouse death. It’s just so tragic and I’m really irritated with all the “No, no, no,” jokes that are flying around the Internet.

I mean, you all know that she actually went to rehab, right? Several times, in fact. But, rehab isn’t a sure-fire fix. Just ask Jeff Conaway or Mike Starr or DJ AM or Kurt Cobain or Bradley Nowell or the - I’m guessing - hundreds of thousands of other people who died from their addictions in spite of their attempts to get clean.

Whatever was broken in Amy that led to her addictions was obviously very, very broken.

    I absolutely HATE that this happened. I was keeping my mouth shut hoping she was healing and recovering to continue a brilliant career.

    I used to check in on her from time to time - on Google of course - and hope that I wouldn’t find anything on her because I figured that would mean she had stepped out of the limelight and into a life of sanity. Sadly, every time I checked, there was some story on whatever recent shit show she had participated in. Sad, sad, sad.
