Dad Chat



I called Mom and Dad tonight to see how they're doing, check in, chat. Dad sounded really good. So did Mom for that matter. Dad said to me, "We're a lot better off down here" then added, "but we miss you."

This singular comment launched my brain into a whole inner dialogue about whether Mom and Dad should've move down to San Diego sooner. And then THAT launched my brain into a whole new inner dialogue about the morality and ethical sense of keeping humans alive for as long as possible for no reason other than.......to see how long we can keep humans alive.

Inner dialogue aside, tonight's better-than-average chat with Dad was a nice change of pace to the "are you working enough," "do you have enough money" conversations that have been the norm.
