Life as seen through the eyes of a displaced cheesehead formerly living in San Francisco now taking on the Pacific Northwest! Put a bird on it!

One more conversation...


My friend died today. Not really worth going into the detail of how or why. She's just gone and it's sad. She was brillant. Funny. Down right goofy. So young. And now she's gone. We hadn't spoken in months over some mishappenings and well, now it's easy to say I fucked up. She was in trouble, that was apparent. And the trouble caught up with her in a bad way. One more conversation. One more attempt to talk her into getting some help. But I wouldn't do it because I was being stubborn. I know, I know, she's the only one who could have helped herself but that doesn't bring her back now does it? Here's to Shortcake. Rest in peace.

don't beat yourself up. no matter what happened between the two of you, deep down she knew you cared. and only shortcake could help herself. there's nothing any of us could have done. if you need anything...i'm only a phone call or email away. luv ya.

shortcake was spirit
is spirit
spirit never dies
merely shifts shapes

does she next incarnate?
keep eyes & heart open
