Okay. 😅
I don't know what this says about how old I feel inside, but since I don't follow celebrities outside their roles, I only just now learned that a character I'd been trying not to adore in too creepy a way (Erica "I fly the ship" Ortegas), thinking that she was surely a whippersnapper in her twenties, is actually played by someone a year and a half older than me.
So 1) yay! I can crush non-creepily!
But also
2) how old IS my internal clock running, that I assumed she was "too young"?!
@MLClark
Love her.
Did you read about her losing the love of her life? JFC, it’s sad. She was kind of a zombie filming season 2.
She writes about it ~

Yes. I was a little worried about posting this in case someone decided to be "funny" (not funny, not funny at all) and chime in "and she's single!" What an absolute agony of an experience. My heart aches for people who found their person and didn't get anywhere near enough time with them.
We all just need to hug our loved ones as often as we can, and remember to cherish the moments we get with them. Life is somehow both very long and very, very short. 💙
