A few days ago, the news about Adrienne Shelly’s death was perplexing and sobering. But today’s news, rather than being a relief - is just awful. I was a huge fan. Bye.

Horrible news.
Weirdly, I found her IMDB page a couple of days ago quite randomly.
After watching “Slither” Thursday night, I looked up Nathan Fillion’s upcoming projects, and discovered that Shelly had just directed him in the unreleased “Waitress”. The top posts of her forum reported the news of her suicide, and I was shocked to realize it had only just occurred.
Now that it’s become a murder case, I’m torn between feeling relieved and sickened.
