This friend I haven’t really talked much about since I barely hear from him. I do miss him and it’s not due to the debt of gratitude I owe him over many things. It’s also not us meeting over 25 years ago at Marquette. It’s all the good times we did have.
Overall Doc is a good person. The women in my life tend to keep their distance because they find him too bossy. Maybe he’s the person who got me to calm down and transform into the “empathic” type I’ve gradually evolved into. Don’t laugh, I still have my off, grumpy, jerk days like everyone else. I’m just no longer the “my way or the highway” jackass I feel like I had been in my youth.
I checked out whatever was going on his Facebook page. Nothing for over three years. Plus it reminded me that his son with Masami is over three nowadays. I wish I received the advanced memo so I could’ve begged him not to name the little guy Nicholas. Numerous kids in my life have this name, it gets confusing!
Well, I hope he has a nice day and things in Knoxville are going successfully. Maybe I’ll hear from him soon to wish him happy birthday via audio.
