Today a 4-year-old girl died in a fire.
And I'm a little bit upset because my spacebar keeps sticking and it's a new keyboard.
I think my keyboard problem is far less important in the grand scheme of things.
I feel bad for her family.
Fire investigators are investigating (because that's what they do), but I think someone will end up taking the blame.
Imagine losing a daughter and then learning it was your fault.
What if you could have fixed the wiring or moved the space heater a little further from the curtain and your child would have lived?
I don't know if is what happened, I'm guessing.
I hope it ends up being something that was truly unavoidable, but I doubt it.
I helped with the reporting, but got nowhere.
The fire investigators don't want to say anything yet.
Nobody official wants to say anything.
I turned into a stupid reporter a bit today.
Not stupid as in, that guy is asking totally irrelevant questions, but I was a little curt with a PIO who wouldn't tell me anything.
I don't like being that guy. I'll try to learn from it and drive on. Make a better choice the next time.
Too many deaths lately.
