[Cicero]

They started out poor- my dad married a woman with 4 kids. But he worked his way up the ranks in the military until we became middle class. We traveled more than most in the middle-class. I think my head is still spinning from all that movement...Daddy was a Col. in the Air Force. It really doesn't matter how rich you are when you spend your life on military bases. It's really quite drab no matter what. Now he's a Director of the Southern Branches for a prominent health insurance firm. I think they all retire into the same company. I'm pretty sure I met some of those guys while they were still in the military. Well- I know I did.......But I still ate just as much Ramen and mayonnaise sandwiches as everyone else....I think.

*Yes it is ironic that my father is a supposed healthcare provider. Well seems a little ironic right now......I'll get over it.*
