And Then There Were Three

I've been thinking a lot about writing here. Obviously I haven't and that's because frankly, the last while has been a bit of a shit storm in my life. Something in my brain buckled, and I couldn't put a keystroke to screen until now.

The last time I wrote here, I had come through a relentless summer and fall. Ragdoll had been deathly ill, I had found out my first boyfriend had died, my grandmother died and Shuggy our cat died.

In February, our cat Neko died. In March, my youngest Uncle on my mother's side passed away suddenly due to a pulmonary embolism. Two weeks ago our cat Chudleigh died.

I'm now left with our three little cats, Lolly, Jerry and Possil. And I say "I'm" because my relationship with the Marine is also coming to an end. Nothing I've ever said about him here has changed. I mention our parting because contextually, I want future blogs to make sense. I'll say no more about it.

Some things are just too precious for the internet.

I'm sorry for all the loss you've had lately. That certainly is a shit storm.

Funnily enough I thinking of you right around when you wrote this. I was at BlogHer and thinking about another conference I was going to this fall in Toronto and how I'd be meeting up with ragdoll, which made me think of you, which made me think that you hadn't posted in a long time. It was really nice to open my feedreader for the first time in several days and see that you had posted.
