no need to be sorry, it's not for everyone .... and at your age, I think it better to not be a dad unless you really wanted to be one

Welp, I'm off to Virginia for a 60th birthday surprise party for my dad. Will be back on Sunday. Sadly I will be unable to enter phase 3 of the RTO so none of you will be subjected to my bad artwork.

Alrighty, Tata for now! (Well i Might be able to stop by in the morning).

It was a good time. My father was very surprised. As a gift, we sent a letter out to people who have known him during his life (all the way back through high school) asking them to send letters, photos, whatever, and then we assembled a scrapbook out of all of it. He was very touched.

Times like that make you appreciate family.
