It's a little weird because I was thinking a lot about my dad recently from a writing perspective. Thinking about how strange it is for a boy to start seeing his father like a man sees another man. I wasn't happy with myself because I haven't written anything outside of D&D crap in a while and that was the spark I wanted to use to get writing again. Take that seed of an idea and see where it takes me.
As you probably guessed he passed away this morning. I got the call from the Veteran's Administration and passed the word onto my mom. I really don't know how this is going to impact my life in the long term but I suppose I'll be going back east in the next couple of days and I'll spend the day speaking to people.
I love you, dad.
