  • My Dad

    It hasn't been a great couple of weeks.  Although I haven't been blogging, I have been writing a lot about my Dad.  Between emails, the obituary, the eulogy, and the hundreds of thoughts in my head, I have perhaps a dozen or more Dad-related blog entries worth of material.  It will show up soon.  Much of it will just be getting my thoughts out and on "paper", I don't expect people to read it all. 

    But then, that is true of my entire blog.  This is mainly just a place for me to vent.  I keep some entries private, but in keeping with my lifelong commitment to total honesty, share a lot of random thoughts here.  In thinking about my entries here, anyone reading everything here would would likely give up under the weight of the ton of mediocre entries.  I do occasionally write what I feel is a funny, or poignant entry, something reflecting the "true me" and that I am proud to share with my family and friends.  But most of this clutter is just me "talking to myself", keeping my communication skills primed.
