Been there done that Doc. Lived with the girl for a few years, engaged etc. Didn't end well. She still calls occasionally to see if I have some random thing and gets pissed whenever I repeat that I threw it away long ago.

So what's it like having your house back?

I'm thinking an exorcist is still in order, just in case some small part of him (fingernail clippings, stray hairs) are still on the premises.

But if holy water touches the clippings or hairs, your house may explode, doc.

Amazing. I'm so happy right now. He used to really dominate any activity - if I played music he had to dictate exactly what he wanted to hear or he'd whine like a little girl (100% of the time, not just here and there). He literally took over anything I wanted to do and it was easier to let him than stop him - even cooking a meal.

So I am playing Chris Whitley and eating snapper and leaving all the cabinet doors open.

But - dad was concerned because the Red Flag has a temper so dad's been over almost every day to "fix" this or that. When he saw that every single window in my entire house was unlocked he got suspicious and changed the locks.

Yeah to Dad! Aren't parents amazing.....we treat them like total crap in our teenage (and maybe even into early 20s) years, yet they still love us and look out for us. I like that he has excuses to stop by....that's outstanding. :)

Yeah - my dad is my hero. I never treated him like crap growing up, I worshipped him. He is an amazing father. But yeah - I definitely made him worry (unintentionally) in my teens.

Thanks rad (and all). Life is good again.
