Today I was working in Lincoln and driving through downtown during the lunch hour. It was a warm fall day and the streets were full of business people out and about for a quick bite to eat. Seeing several groups of men about my dad's age in dark suits, I suddenly yearned, badly, to have lunch with my dad. It would have been so perfect. Marley was with my mom. I was in my own suit. On my way to the Legislature. We could have squeezed an hour out of our work days and would have had so much to talk about. Maybe we would have had a regular standing lunch date...
This time of year always makes me miss him.
