Last night I went home to my parents’ house for dinner. My mom made spaghetti and meatballs and sausage. My father said to me, “Did you see those comments on your blog? They are hysterical!”
“Aren’t they great? Mine is the only blog where the commenters are more entertaining than the blog itself.”
We laughed and my dad said, “Yeah, your blog is boring but those guys make it entertaining.”
My dad died this morning. And I am numb.

Seriously? So sorry to hear that.
Nobody jokes about that, so I have to assume you’re serious. Very sorry to hear that news, and my condolences to you and your family.
