Still hurts...but life goes on
15 years ago
So it will officially have been one week since Lucky passed away tomorrow. Ive been going about my day to day business in pretty much auto pilot (my boss and i were discussing it today 'cause apparently its showing in my performance). Ive been riding my bicycle all over the place to try to keep my mind and feet busy. Friday I even rode it down the river to the beach and back home (which is a VERY long ride if you know anything about the layout of SoCal) But i digress...yes it sucks, death is never fun to deal with and when it does, even if you've prepared for it and are expecting it, its never easy saying goodbye. I'm not so much depressed as i am just numb on the inside. I know it'll will get better (heck it already has in some ways) I am especially grateful to those in my life right now who gave me there unwavering support in words and in actions (even if they weren't able to be with me in person). This week sucked, but tomorrow I am going to try my best to look on the bright side of things again. Hopefully that means more art too, I haven't drawn enough porn lately, I need to fix that :P

It might be a little too early yet but you should consider getting another pet. There are so many cats and dogs out there that need good homes and so many good homes out there that need pets. You seem like a good, caring person.

Trust me, I know i will be adopting again, I cant imagine myself without at least one or two dogs by my side. Im just gonna have to wait at least until Im in a better financial situation and know that I can care for him/her whenver that may be

Yeah, it definitely takes a while to heal, especially if their passing is a traumatic experience. Trust me, I know.

it wasn't traumatic. she was 15 going on 16 and in obvious discomfort. I knew it was gonna happen it just sucks still when that time came. Plus the fact that I was the one who held her while they administered the shot, so i could literally feel her life slip away. But it had to be done, and it was painless and peaceful....so yeah
