I lost a great friend late last night.
She was something else...we took turns being there for each other.
She attacked life like it was to be ridden like a Harley, not as a passenger in a minivan.
She had lived a life that was filled with stories...we should all be so lucky.
Last time I saw her she was heading out the door with L in a corset, boots and a desire to dance all night. Which she did...
She had been ill for sometime but she kept living (excuse me: LIVING!). As a good friend put it: "Her body simply wasn't strong enough to contain such a fiery spirit."
Since she'd kick my butt for being too maudlin, I've gone to the bar and taken down the Crown Royal Reserve and will be celebrating her life with each sip.
I think she'd approve.
