please no more

They had to put Willow down this morning. Her liver stopped working last night I guess, for her to be so sick this morning. I was the only one not there. I never seem to be there to say goodbye, for anyone. Not once.

My dad sounds so heartsick. She was the first dog he loved after we lost Shadow, oh so many years ago. I have neither the time or inclination to write down my family's history of dogs. Suffice to say, they have always been there and loved.

The angel closes her eyes.

I listened to that album over and over again on my headphones my first year of high school. One of those that wound up so fraught with meaning and memory.

One of the things I like most about Melynda and Gene is that we turn up the music and sing along in the car.
