I've been blogging (as I mentioned) at myauditions, that's been great but I want to write a little more personal things, too and that site is a bit more -professional-
Colin is back from U Md. He got his learner's permit, which had lapsed, today and drove home. A little shaky, but still we got home in one piece. Meghan is finishing her exams and can't wait for her driver's test. It will be nice to have her be able to drive, but then starts the new worry- where is she? is she safe? etc. etc.. I don't know what's worse- being a teenager with parents, or being a parent with teenagers. Fortunately both of our kids are pretty level-headed, so I don't worry too much...
Went to see my Dad this afternoon - Colin drove there. He looks pretty bad, very depressed. I don't know what would satisfy him and I certianly can't play his passive-aggressive game. When we're there he gives mono-syllabic answers and won't initiate conversation. Later I hear that he's complaining because I won't talk to him and I just run away without a proper visit.
Too bad. I sure hope I can be more reconciled to the indignities of aging when I'm his age.
Enuf for now. More soon.
