Trane's Last Bone

Had to put “Trane” down today. He was almost 15 years old and time had taken it’s toll on that poor dog. Finally on his last walk he looked at me and he realized he just could not make it… It was so much harder than I thought, and I lost it later that night. Wine helps.  I was told that dog never caught a break from me, but that’s only partially true.

Many friends birthdays this last month or so. Tonight was Nico’s BDay.  M’Lissa & Nico hung with me & Titus, long distance from the Rockies. Great show. Titus brought his new dog Charlie. M’Lissa did the intro voice. I miss these people and love them dearly. I am lucky to have met the top shelf people that I know.

Tonight it was a pleasure to hang out with the girls. Elizabeth, Lisa, Bailey, Liz, Gwen… and … Nicolett. Years and years I have known and loved her. From young, wise beyond her years kid, to grown woman of the world. Spent many nights in conversation, liquor, love, and laughter. If I had to make a list of the finest people I know, her spot would be hard for anyone to approach.

Not to mention, a beautiful rain drenched evening…

A re-visitation of my love for Patsy Cline. I used to have a dear friend named Tom. He lived next door to me in Pasadena, where for awhile we were both single and drinking. Many nights started and ended with him meeting me on the porch with a gallon of wine asking me the question… “Patsy Cline or Bob Dylan…?”

I love the rain.

Not like most people…

I mean I love the rain like a drunken wino philosopher loves a great bottle of Pinot Noir more than a great woman. It rained tonight like those rare California rains that make you think about your life and dying and how you love the world and the dirt and the buildings.

I love the rain.
