Weekish ago? My dad calls and leaves a voice mail about getting a new number. We don’t have an actual relationship, so this is more of a courtesy.

That’s cool. I text him, tell him that I’m glad he called and that I’ve saved his new contact information.

I text him on Father’s Day because I mean, he JUST gave me his new information so I’m thinking I’d better go ahead and be that better man. I thank him for life lessons, the teaching he did, etc. No response.

The last time I texted him was last October on his birthday and on Christmas to check on him following the death of his third wife. (I’m from his 2nd.) He seemed grateful and thankful.

I’m thinking about this too much. Years and years went by without any conversation at all by his wishes to not hear about ‘my gay life.’ The last time I saw him in person was at his father’s funeral which was forever ago.

It’s kind of crazy just how small my family tree is in general. And how even with the ones I do talk to, it’s so very little which is supposedly a good thing considering how it was going 10 years ago when I lived with my mom, sister, and her Kid Rock Boyfriend and the loli.
