Deaths in the Family

Deaths in the Family

Just . . . DAMN.

I've been reading Rachel Lucas since before I began blogging, and like everyone else, I laughed at her posts about her dogs Digger, Sunny, and lately Maggie. Digger died a while back, but Sunny passed just this Tuesday. Sunny holds a special place in my heart, for when I was selling the "F^*k It! McCain '08" bumperstickers, Rachel said she'd pose Sunny with one on her head.

And she did:


I think that was good for at least 100 sales.

And today I found out that Chris Byrne and his family lost their companion Mac on Wednesday.

I had to put my dog down Feb. 14, 1996. I haven't gotten another one. Still miss her.

Dammit.
