An emptiness

While I was still lying in bed this morning, Pandora cam and laid at the head of the bed. I was physically petting her, but I was really petting Rascal.

I went to church this morning and my church friends were very supportive of me. Many of them have had indoor pets and know what pain it is to lose them.

When I got back home, the place seemed somewhat empty. Pandora was lying on the bed. I felt an urge to go look for Rascal, but I know he’s no longer here. I just decided to love Pandora all the more. A few tears are welling up as I write this.

I'm a middle-aged (bordering on senior) geek, born near the tail end of the Baby Boom generation. Since I was just a little guy, I've loved science fiction, comic books, science, space, math and a bunch of other geeky things. As a kid, I felt out of place because of my interests, but now, I embrace them fully.
