CRITIQUE DISCOURAGED DOESN'T MEAN I WANT SILENCE! IT MEANS I DON'T WANNA KNOW WHERE I SCREWED UP.

tonight, i popped in my old dar williams cd int eh car. going along fine singing a long, 1st song, 2nd song, 3rd song, 4th song, skip 5th (never liked it) start to sing along to 6th. comes to second verse and i burst out crying.

it's been forever since i've cried over t.c. my old cat. you've never seen a pic of him, i think i have one on the comp, just never uploaded anywhere. anyhow i had him for 17 years of my life. so losing him was horrbile for me. it's not a new loss, he passed away in 1999. but goodness this song. the lyrics:

"We stood outside in the summer rain,
Different people with a common pain.
A simple box in the hard red clay,
Where we left him to always remain.

Let your love cover me,
Like a pair of angel wings,
You are my family,
You are my family"

in particular. because it was april 9th when he passed, and it was raining. i was listening to that song a lot around the time of his passing. he was my only family in the home i shared with my parents. he was the only one whoever understood. now he is gone.

anyway, i had to draw something. if anyone wants the originla line art to color let me know, it looks great.
