you know what is great Bob (or should i say dad?), it is wonderful to know that you take such an active interest in our lives, mine in particular, that you take the time to search for me online rather than pick up a phone and talk to me, or even your own daughter for that matter.
also sir, what is private? when you say to keep private matters out of my public writings, you must mean those matters which you are afraid to look at in life, or possibly the matters which are so private that no one should say a thing about them, like your concern for your daughter's marriage to me in the five months prior to the wedding day.
oh and a real job would be one that i get that causes me to lose self-respect and eventua;lly self interest, so i could afford things boats, new SUV's and golf trips, rather than working hard everyday of my life to become a great writer and a person that Angela, myself, and our children will respect as a hard working man who puts his entire being into what he creates, be it fiction, poetry, or family.
i would like to thank you for your readership and support of my writing by logging on daily to become a more active member of our lives.
i do believe though, bob, that i will continue to write about everything inn my life that i wish to write about and i will not hide myself fromt he world. i would like to speak with you, one on one, in a real conversation sir, you have made a great impact in your daugghters life and i love the person that she is thanks to her parents. she is a wonderful, loving and very patient person, which is obvious because she has to put up with loving men like you and I, and we are not always easy people to love sir. she loves you, and yes she loves me, so how about a phone call, or even a personal appearance. in the meantime, read my writing with a little bit more of a sense of humor, and a lot more willingness towards understanding and acceptance, and i will surely try to understand where you are coming from.
remember that we are both young, but we are not stupid sir, and any mistakes we do make will be our mistakes and our lessons and eventually our triumphs.
