It’s been more than a year and a half since Robert Davis passed away. I wrote a bit about Robert’s passing last April.
I haven’t written about him since, but I think about Robert a lot.

I woke up early on Tuesday with a hundred things to do and plenty of energy to match my task list. By noon, I’d made a loaf of bread, helped a friend solve a tech mystery, and had various professional adventures.
Then I opened Twitter and saw the news that Robert Davis passed away.
I haven’t really gotten much done in the hours since, except think about Robert. And cry a bit. And laugh. It feels weird laughing, but I think Robert would understand.
