Dear Loco,

Dear Loco, I shared this link with all. Anu and Mana wrote back with lovely, lovely things. Mum wrote back with lovely things. LOOK at what you’ve inspired. You’re magic, baby. I’ve purchased so many domains this year – all in the hopes of creating something – and NADA. You pass, and I write. Everything…

Dear Loco, It’s a little bit hilarious to think I have a “Title” for everyday of my life dedicated to some secret lesson I gleaned from your life. I inscribed the book we gave Lana with a message from you. I always imagined I’d like to leave a little love behind when I left this…

Dear Loco, Today, I bought dearloco.comI spent the day working, and setting up this homage to you. To my life being everything you represented. To paying attention to the little things. To being present for my life (read:less infinite scrolling, more looking up). To being grateful. To loving more. To singing. To dancing. To playing.…

Dear Loco, I remember reading a story about The Giving Tree, and it comes back to me now when I think of you. You were my giving tree. We started the day watching Gandhadha Gudi. It was mesmerizing. I feel like I’ve been living under a rock. I didn’t know there were so many fascinating…

Dear Loco, I went to visit Nins and Azur today. I gave Azur the gift card we got for him. I’ve told him you’d have wanted him to buy something nice for himself. I’ll report back on what he buys. Nina gave me loads of licks and kisses…and even a long cuddle. Even Django was…

Dear Loco, Luna’s been acting crazy, I think she misses you AND get this… She may be pregnant. If we’re going to have a reincarnation situation, then I’m going to name the Loco-est Kitten Slartibartfast as I originally intended with you.You do have his BIG personality, and general swagger. Luna keeps inviting me outside –…

Dear Loco, When we left the crematorium, it started to pour and I wondered if the heavens were grieving as I was. I played our song on the ride back home. https://youtu.be/q4GJVOMjCC4 Azur told me things that greatly comforted me in my grief. A lifetime of saying the wrong(ish) things boiled down to one moment…

Dear Loco, I googled words for a deep, deep, relentless sorrow – The kind that feels like it will swallow you whole, but that might only be the beginning – and I came up with Natsukashii. a nostalgic longing for the past, with happiness for the fond memory, yet sadness that it is no longer.Is…
