Unexpected Storms
I’m laying across the bed with my phone connected to a portable battery charger, looking out the window into pure darkness.

Hey Dad
Today is Father’s Day 2021 and man do I miss you. You’ve been gone 10 years now and sometimes it doesn’t seem real. I think maybe a couple of years ago I finally changed the caller ID in my phone from your name. I would get excited sometime when I saw your name pop up […]
