#father

I played the cello from when I was ten, and then I bought a guitar from the father of some friends of mine and played that for a while. And then when I was fourteen or so, I bought a guitar - a real nice one - in Durham, North Carolina, that I worked with up until I was about twenty-five. ↗

My father has positional vertigo, and if he flies he gets really dizzy, so he has to drive out to California, which he does a couple times a year. We talk, but we e-mail mostly. ↗

My mother didn't try to stab my father until I was six, but she must have shown signs of oddness before that. ↗

I grew up in a very open-minded family. My father died when I was very little, so my mother was really, really incredibly busy trying to provide for us. ↗

I think about my grandfather who's 89 years old, and the last thing he needs is more money out of his pocket. ↗
