Current Events > So I've learned a bit about my dad while reconnecting with family

(+) Yeah! (+)

According to pretty much everyone who was close to him, he would brag about me to pretty much everyone he talked to. He also loved to wear white shoes when he dressed for formal occasions.

And here I am with these:



He struggled with drugs for most of his life. I remember him sending me a check for my birthday a few years ago. The check bounced. When I told him about it, he said he'd make it up to me by sending me a money order. He sent me an empty envelope. I told him not to send me any more money after that.

Right now I'm feeling so run down in general. I've been on the road between Austin, TX, and Pensacola, FL/Fort Walton Beach, FL twice in the past 30 days. I've been trying to get back to work and the gym to get back to my normal routine, but I think I'm overdoing it.

I'm definitely gonna enjoy this upcoming vacation time. I need to decompress somehow.

it's the thought that counts, bro-sky

It would be nice if the thought didn't cost me money, but whatever
