bottle neck

so, the next post down is the most recent cause of sporadic posts here. whenever i have a post that is bigger than the time and energy i have to give to it, well, things just plug up until i can get the most important one out.

this one, in particular, i've been meaning to write since january 11th when my dad headed back to home to europe. and, i was pleased and honored to learn that some of you have even come to the blog specifically looking for the conclusion of the story of my father's visit. so, here it is and it's cost me about 2 hours of precious sleep, but it's worth it and i can finally draw a thick black sharpie line through the words dad blog on my most recent to do list.

thanks for being patient, and thanks for reading.
