I'm your brother, uncle, son, or pal, but I've been away. Sorry, I needed thirty years to get my head straight.
philosophically me, but not actually me |
Fate was kind to the foolish, when I wandered off in 1991. I settled in San Francisco, fell in love with a beautiful bohemian dame, and we moved to Wisconsin and lived happily ever after. I miss you, Stephanie.
Now
I'm alone, 2,000 miles away, but if you'll have me I'd like to be part of my family again. The bluest skies you've ever seen, the hills the greenest green... Yeah, I'm moving back to Seattle.
There's no estimated arrival date. Relocating will be a big project, and take at least months, maybe a year. Weekly progress reports will be posted on this page, www.douggles.com.
I hope Mom and my sisters and brothers and a few old friends won't mind having me around, and I'd like to get to know the nieces and nephews and everyone else who's grown up without me.
Been pondering this for a week, and I'm lazy and moving looks like a lot of work... but now I've typed it and tacked it to the internet wall, which makes it official.
Woo-hoo! See you soon!
