It is so surprise to anyone who knows me that Carrie Fisher is my hero. One of the best compliments I ever received was from Fisher, another was a friend comparing my writing style to Fisher’s without knowing what that means to me. All this to say that today is a holiday of sorts.
But for all my love and celebrating of Fisher, there is a sadness that comes with the day. She would have been 69 years old. Fisher passed away in 2016 and it is one of those celebrity deaths I don’t think I will ever get over. What makes this day so much harder too is that many look for Fisher’s daughter, Billie Lourd, to post about their “space momby.”
