Farewell To A Friend
His name is Ludwig (original, I know) and he was like a brother to me. He slept next to me every night for 5 years and then when I came back to visit for the next 5 years he was still there to welcome me home and stay by my side. He let me hit him as much as I wanted for anger management, he was always ready to rock out and party with me whether it was smooth jazz or hard rock, and he never let me down. I won't forget the good old days, Ludwig- our long jam sessions to the Jimmy Eat World and Juliana Theory albums, our Owkin days, or even my Shakira phase, (let's be honest it wasn't just a phase) they hold a special place in my heart. Here's to you Ludwig, may you rest in peace in self storage as mom turns our special jam sesh space into a guest room. Thanks for the memories.

i think this is the saddest good bye ever, even sadder than the hamsters your buried...including the one that mysteriously died after i baby-sat it. I'm sorry for your loss.
your poetic prose made me i wish i had a Ludwig by my side
Everyone deserves a ludwig by their side. And kari, i don't know that i never connected the dots that mia hammster's death was so close to when u babysat her, it all makes sense now... But, I did recognize chicken's death was coincidentally close to falling down both flights of stairs in his ball...
