goodbye to k

August 11, 2004

Well, so there goes K – the most splendidly gangster-talking, hard-drinking, sumo-wrestling, didgeree-doo-playing, wildly entertaining and excellent itinerant sometime bargirl from Osaka I’ve ever danced the rhumba on a moonlit racetrack with. Knowing her made me feel like a character in a Tom Waits song, and in my world that’s a good thing. It seems about equally likely that she’ll turn up some day in Edinburgh and stay several months as that I’ll never see her again…
