Begin at the beginning

Why did I do this?

Hell I dunno, I did it because I guess I have a lot to say, or at the very least a little to say occasionally. I am doing this because I wanna write down my thoughts from time to time, and well, I have just enough of an ego to think that maybe someone else might wanna read them.

I have been a husband, as of today’s date almost 11 years. My wife K is a difficult woman who I love dearly. I call her difficult because she takes nothing from me, none of my bs or flack. Am I so difficult she should be sainted? Far from it, but she is a good woman and takes care of me. She is one of the most artistic people I have ever met in my life. Add that to the already list of things she is, intelligent, beautiful, sexy, funny. Well you get it, I am lucky.

I have been a father for 10 years. My daughter (C) is a being all her own, she is athletic, dramatic, funny, she is amazing. And she scares the bejesus out of me. She has a dash of myself and my wife in her, so that makes one complex individual. She makes me smile bigger than ever before and keeps me up at night with thoughts of how I care for her.

I have been a Son for 38 years. I am my fathers son, I will speak about my dad quite a bit I imagine, he shaped me into the person I am today and for that I am grateful. He is my go to person, thoughts, questions, rants and compliments, he does what ever persons dad should do….LISTEN, then talk. Should I feed his advice he supports me, should I not, he supports me. Quite possible the best father a child could ask for, I know I am biased, sue me.

My mother passed away last year. The kind of woman that people gravitated too, she was an artist, through and through, the world has a hole in it since she left.  My memories of her are peppered with an interesting past. I will share from time to time about her, but that will be later. I miss you mom.

This is a pretty simple concept, I talk and spill my guts and I feel better for not bottling them up, and maybe just maybe someone else reads it and feels better because they are not so alone in their trials and tribulation. Who knows. I know I don’t.

I will of course not be limited to just the above subjects, being my journal I can talk about anything I see fit so expect random entries from time to time, a movie I want to share, or a game, or even some rant, which I am pron too, when I feel the fools of the world have gotten to close to me so I feel the need to shake off their touch with a post. Either way, this is my blog, nice to meet you.
