Note to self
After 28 years, maybe I should realize that when Dad asks, “Wanna go for a drive?,” he means,”Want to open all the gates for me while I drive?” Kind of like how it took me a whole summer in middle school to figure out that “quality time” meant “pulling yellow weed out of the pasture with your hands.”
Also, over Christmas dinner, I think I talked my stepmom & our neighbors...

My dad’s working on setting up his estate, although he’s never going to die. Right Dad? Never, right? Never! Good.
Anyway, I have to sign off on all sorts of things and it’s really weird to be making provisions for the spouse and children you don’t have. Also, I think the lawyer thinks I’m crazy because I keep making up elaborate scenarios for my imaginary...

BLONDE ALERT
Exhibit A: Tonight I went to K-Mart, which is 10 blocks away, and it took me 5 hours to get there. I may or may not have run into some friends along the way.
Exhibit B: For the past 2 days (or more?), I’ve been tearing apart my apartment, unpacking and re-packing boxes, looking for an imaginary second CD of calendar pictures. Turns out all along, all the pictures were on ONE CD, which has...
