The light in my life is a little dimmer these days.

On Sunday May 30th, 2010 one of my closest and dearest friends suffered a stroke.

This is bad enough as it is, but it was also my 57th birthday.

The friend I am speaking of has lived with Red and I for the last 10 years. The people that have known him over the years will attest to the fact that he was an old soul, and one of the most lovable friends, companions, one could ever hope to ask for.

This friend’s name was Keyser Soze. Not to be confused with the character in the movie, but that was who he was named after.

He is now at peace, he passed away on June 3rd, 2010 at 4:28 pm.

He was laid to rest in a beautiful place thanks to another dear friend. From his resting place he can look out over fields of green grass with swarms of Dragonflies and Honeysuckle all over the hillside. There are also several Llama’s and Arabian horses near by that he can see and hear.

Keyser My Friend

Keyser My Friend

This dog had more personality and chutzpa than most people I know. He will be remembered in our family forever. For those of you that knew him I hope you remember him fondly as well. For those of you that never got to meet him I feel for you. You missed a chance of a lifetime. He was as human as you could get in a dog’s body.

Keyser I love you man. Always will. Rest in peace my friend. I will cherish the time we spent together. I love and Miss you my friend… Till we meet again in the SummerLand, be good and have all the pain free fun you can. I know you will be watching out for us.

Peace Out Keyser, I Love you !!!

I think this say's it all!

Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane.

Apologies to all

I have said some pretty idiotic things today.

And unfortunately I said some of them to people I care very much about.

After coming home and having time to think.  I realize that I have been somewhat of an ass.

Now I suppose the term “somewhat” is dependent on the point of view of the person I was speaking to at the time. ;)

OK so to make a long story short. Yes I got bad news today. Just one more thing in what seems like an endless array of “bad things” that have been sent my way of late. It is too involved here to explain right now, mainly because my hands are killing me and I don’t want to type more than I have to.

And to those of you who have mentioned the “it has to get denied a few times before it is approved” comment I understand this part. But I do thank you for mentioning it because it lets me know you care and best of all that people actually read what I post. lol But there is more to the initial denial than just that. As I said more to it then the obvious. I am sure that those of you that know Red and I well enough will know it all before too long.

As for me well I am and always have been a fighter. Not going to let this go. I have things I need to focus on for the immediate future and worry about the rest later.

But first I want to say something. Not like the above is not something, it is. But just not what I want to say now and to who I wanted to say it.

Man now I am beginning to type like Red. Stream of conscious typing. No structure.. lol

Ok Red, it is you that I want to address this to.

I realized after I dropped you off at school that I had been a total ass. I made you cry because I told you to take back the clothes you bought me because I was worried about expenses. Well in my mind I was right. It was just a gut reaction to natural survival. Shut every non essential down and bring the wagons into a circle.  In my panic I neglected to take into account your feelings and for that I am sorry. I hate to see you cry. It tears my heart up. You are not only my partner Red. you are my best friend, confidant and all that makes me worth knowing.  I have learned more about who I am in the last 10 years with you than I have in the last 56 years I have been on this planet.  If it had not been for you my Love I would not be here now. My life or what I thought was my life ended 10 years ago in Florida. You are the Only thing that stopped me from pursuing one of the stupidest and final mistakes of my life.

I guess what I am trying to say here Red is that I Love you more than life it’s self. And without you there is nothing. You Rock my world on a daily basis. And when I am foolish enough to say or do something that hurts you it rips me apart. So I ask you for your forgiveness and know that I can not promise it won’t happen again. Why? because I am human and I have emotions. But I will sure try to think before I speak in the future.

I Love you All Ways and in All Ways. We will survive.

And as much as I love the Klingon‘s.

Today is Not a good day to die.

Today is a good day to Fight!

To my FaceBook friends. At some point tonight I will log back in and change my photo back and remove the rantings of the lunatic. lol

But until then,

Peace Out

Dragon
