One Small Step...

So after a pep talk from my friend Doug, and before I became to wasted for the evening, I decided to take the plunge and call my parents.

Overall I think it went well, mostly had to speak to my mom for 3/4 of the call, but I did talk to my dad too. Got the latest dirt on who died, who got married and a really interesting chat about immigrating to Canada. It was interesting to say the least, for the first time in over a decade my parents and I had something in common; we were both immigrants now. Don't get me wrong there was some tension, but in the end I think we were both too tired and too old to pick up our argument where we usually left it off.

I've been here before; the hopeful moment where you think it all changes. I'm not expecting anything, but if the next phone call is this easy it will be a pleasant surprise.

Thanks for the support all.
