She just quietly slipped away
I loved this lady a bushel and a peck and I really don't feel like I told her enough. She slipped away so quietly.
My personal memories of Lori:
Her kitties
a very large bucket in her kitchen marked "squirrel nuts" full of walnuts. If this lady fed you, you ate good. Even the critters.
She gave so much better than she got, and her life was pretty darn good.
when I threw a marathon showing of the trilogy at a local theater, she not only showed up, she came dressed as Frodo. On the Red Line. In broad daylight. She loved how much the kids she met liked her outfit. Furry feet and all.
I'm trying to do this the way you want Lori but I really want to lay down and bawl my fucking eyes out.
If you're reading this I love you. I don't tell you nearly enough. I don't keep in touch nearly enough and that desperately needs to change. I woke up this morning and my Lorie945 slipped away. I'm gonna make it a good day because it's absolutely what she would have wanted.
I'm going to eat something good and take care of myself
I'm going to be kind to every child and animal the crosses my path
I'm going to love you all just a little bit more
Because that what she would have wanted.
That and figure out how the fuck I'm getting to Schiller Park Monday.
