I miss my dad

A hard day today. I miss my dad insanely.

Despite wishing I was, I am not close to my Dad's family. Nobody really seems to get along in that family. It makes me ache inside that the only ties that I have to my dad are so inacessible.

A few days ago I looked at a photo of my cousin Dan who I've probably not seen in 20 years.

His hair freaked me out. Exactly like my Dad's.

For some reason that photo has caused a lot of emotion in me. When I remember the little things that made my dad human - what he looked like, his hair, his hands, his feet, the way he cleared his throat, the way he walked, etc, THAT's when I have a hard time. I"m starting to forget all the little things and quirks he had that made him human.

I miss him.

Today I miss him Insanely.
