Aussie Ghosts

So I had a dream about my Aussie last night... or, rather, this morning, since I was having a difficult time waking up from it. Very interesting dream.

Amway, I got online, and there's my Yahoo reminder that today's his birthday! Haven't talked to him in at least a year, so I dunno where he is or what he's up to. The few attemptes I've made at contact have not been fruitful, so I'm not sure if he is unable or simply doesn't want to retain communication. It's hard to tell. I know he was pretty gung-ho to get into the action in Iraq. I DON'T know if he finally got what he wanted, or how that's working out for him, or if he's even still around. Not a pleasant lack of information, but I very much doubt he conducts his life in order to satisfy my comfort level. lol

So, I continue to send out an e-mail or a card for the important dates, and hope I'm not turning into an unwanted stalker. But history has shown that if I'm going to hear from him, it will be when hes' ready. He has his own demons to work through. I certainly understand those. So until then, I suppose I'll just have to wonder... and worry a little.

Wherever you are out there, dood... Happy Birthday.
