veganhotheadToday marks the tenth anniversary of the day Tiffany died. I hate to use the word "anniversary" like it's something to celebrate, but my brain fog is keeping me from finding a better word. My brain fog also made it hard to remember exactly how many years it had been so I had to look up the article I wrote about her. And then I read it and cried.
I remember being so upset that day at work that my normally evil boss let me go home. Rob took me to a movie to take my mind off it (I don't remember which one). We went by my parents' place afterwards and I still expected to see her there. For months afterwards every time I went over there I expected to see her.
Maggie was still a baby then. They are so much alike (little, pretty, clever,prone to princessness, affectionate and later shy of most people due to traumatic events) for days I kept calling Maggie Tiffany.
I try to be grateful for the magic she brought to the world but right now I'm just sad that these amazing animals that come into our lives are there for such a short time. Just a little while ago I told Maggie and Pip that they must never, ever die and just stay exactly as they are right now. Maggie gave me a sympathetic stare and nipped gently at my hand as I pet her. I know she just wanted me to get out of my sad space and remind me that she's still here. Bless her!
It occurs to me that I started RPing not long afterwards to cheer myself up, which means I've known some of you for a decade. Crazy.
