hi everyone,
sorry it's been so long since the last update. september was a particularly difficult month for a lot of reasons, but the biggest one was my dad's health. he almost died. he's got a rare incurable disease that will kill him, it's just a question of when. he has recurring bouts of pnemonia, each getting progressively worse, and this one in September was the worst yet, and there were a couple of days where we didn't think he was going to make it. neither did he. he managed to just pull it out after several bad weeks in the hospital, but i have a feeling the next one will really be it.
as rational as i try to be about it, it's still really tough. i mean, i know we're all going to die, but that doesn't make it any easier. my dad and i are really close; he's like my best friend, and the most intelligent person i've ever known. it's so difficult to hear him suffering. this is just going to suck so bad.
well, anyway, sorry about the big bummer. he pulled through this time and he's home recovering, so for the time being, things are normalizing.
ok, back to work ...

Hey, this is the artist formerly known as ShivasShakti (i.e. Mrs. Steve). Sorry to hear about your dad - that's totally rough. Rationality never helps in times like these - as lame as it sounds, you really have to focus on the positive - y'know, enjoy the time you spend and have spent together, etc. I know, I know - advice from others never helps. Just know we're all thinking of you - best of luck!

You know you are one of my favorite people, and though like you stated, this will be a difficult situation as it worsens, you know I am here for you through the times he's making it and well, and when things don't look so promising. You are my best pal, S....anything you need brother...you know that
