My best friend and former co-working professional, Stephen Swann, passed away this week. We met at work over 13 years ago, became best friends and had awesome moments and memories. This is one of them. As some of you who know me, I’m not great with pop culture, especially when it comes to music. One time, the song Landslide came on, which I thought was a cover and opened my big mouth, “Oh that’s a great cover of Landslide.” And I’ll never forget the Steve look, “What do you mean cover? While I confidently retorted, “This is a cover of Landside by the Dixie Chicks.” And then the look, one I will never forget as he said, “No, this is the original, Stevie Nicks.” And you can see where this goes.. I replied, “Who?” Steve, “William. What? Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac.” Opening my big mouth again, "Fleetwood who?" That look, it was one of confusion and annoyance to where I think he wanted to whack me. We’ve been best friends ever since. He’s my son’s uncle Steve, my WoW pocket healer, my heterosexual life mate.
