My dad is in the living room practicing lines.

Lines from a play. He’s gone thespian on us. He is in a community presentation of some Neil Simon play. The character - as described by my dad - “is an arrogant, s.o.b. of a dad.”

Well…to put it nicely — he probably has found something within himself that relates to that character.

My dad - the great firefighter, deer hunter, ATV crasher, SCUBA rescuer - has gone thespian. There is hope in this dark world.

I meet up with C L today. Why? So that this doesn’t happen but that is another story. You can check out C.L.’s blog otherwise we might have to send paramedics to it if he doesn’t update it soon.

After that - off to swim with the sharks.
