I woke up today missing my long-time friend David Agerbeek; a
firefighter and paramedic for the Los Angeles County Fire Department.
I use to have a thing for firefighters. I use to vacillate back and forth between cops and firemen; but not literally (joke!). I use to date so many firemen. You
know you do date around when you’re exploring your love life and trying to
figure out what you want and what makes you happy. Anyway, I had a lot of
visits to different fire stations and even went on calls on the Rescue Truck
and different Engines. This was thrilling and scary as you never knew what to
expect when you got to a call.
I loved having a meal with the firefighters at
Station 106 as well as rushing to a call on the Rescue Truck. Thanks to David Agerbeek for that and so many other memories. He might not think so but I do miss
hanging out with him... all those meals we had together, shopping at Trader
Joe's and Whole Foods, meeting up at the gym for years, going to church and the
beach, hanging out at the condo, watching TV and listening to music together,
etc. And so many in-person and phone conversations, and text messages. I liked
being a source of comfort to him when he was on-duty and he called me several times a day from all
these different fire stations. And all the advice he gave me when I was dating
other firefighters. In the end, I just could not handle all those
personal and legal entanglements he was involved in so I had to cut it off. I do still
love and miss him though. I miss the laughter. I miss his smile and his hugs. I miss the way he spoiled me.
Do you ever miss anyone?
Do you ever miss anyone?
