Today Bill says good bye to his best friend, Fey. Twenty years ago we adopted her from the Maricopa county pound, and it was one of the happiest, saddest days of my life. . She was an adorable, playful kitten, but within two hours of bringing her home. I broke out in hives. Evidently I’m slightly allergic to cats but very allergic to her. . My doctor told me Bill was an asshole for keeping her and I should leave him. I got rid of the doctor, but kept the husband and the cat. . We trained her to only ever sit on one side of the couch. Sleep on his side of the bed. It worked, and for 20 years we have had a rather sneezy truce of a relationship. . So I guess it was natural that they became the very best of friends. He loves that cat with every fiber in his being. . Is there anything worse than seeing a loved one suffer? I’m a bad ass mother fucker except for when my reserved, stalwart, to strong for his own good man. Sheds a tear. Then I die a little. . So today I let go of a little bit of myself and he let’s go of his buddy. . Good bye Fey. Thank you for showing both of us what unconditional love is. May the road rise up to meet you and the sun always be at your back. Until we meet again. .
