50 Things I'll Miss About Chicago -->
Thing 26:
Associating my time here with those that have passed (in a remember-y kind of way).
I know it's just the way things go in the circle of life ... but I had barely moved here a few weeks before we lost DJ in Oct 2001 ... and then Demon in Mar 2008 ... JoAnne in Oct 2009 ... Mystery in Mar 2010 ... Mauler in Jul 2012 ... my bio-dad Ralph in Jan 2013 ... and Baby in Jul 2013 ... and each of those instances "belong" to my decade-plus time in Chitown.
COUNTER: I know that people and pets won't live forever (although it is kind of exciting that Murder will be the only one who's prowled around in three states, assuming she can handle the flight [tranquilizers required for sure]) ... so it's likely that there will be deaths that I'll associate with my time down in Florida (although, I wouldn't mind a few more years before I have to start such a list).
