Coven had Mabon (Autumnal Equinox/Second Harvest Celebration) today, step son cooked me steak afterward, talked to my father for the first time in about seven years, and just finished a big sundae (in lieu of cake).

Not bad atall...

Wow, happy belated birthday you two. Elspode, I see you moved forward on the thing with your dad. Did it turn out cathartic and/or even enjoyable?

Actually, *he* called me. I feel (and I hesitate to characterize it this way, but I will anyway) somewhat vindicated. Although he is still rather boastful and even a bit pompous, the circumstances of his past 20 years have pulled him a bit more down to earth (he is living in a fifth wheel somewhere in the drylands of Northern California and working on a water drilling rig - at the age of 70!).

At this late date in life, I doubt very much that I will ever unload all the shit in my head about him. The deep-rooted resentment of his choice to cop out as a parent will be with me forever, I fear...or at least as long as I choose to remain a parent and don't run screaming myself.

In the end, it was good to talk to him, and to make promises to keep in touch this time. I sent him pictures of his grandson and great grandson. We'll see what, if any, effect that has on his POV.
