Craig
You and Kate have been very supportive of me, well at least Kate was that weekend you were away.
Bud you are by far one of the kindest men I've ever met, ya know it's unusual for a man to describe another man as kind or caring but you fit the bill.
You seem to take an enormous weight on your shoulders and try to support it all, maybe at times it's more than is humanly possible.
Take some time to support your needs and wants which I think will probably also be Kates, I still remember and think of the luvey Dovey eyes you two shared while I was there, although it did seem like she was looking under your arm at me.(your too freakin tall for her to look over your shoulder)
I am certainly no one to tell you how to cope or what to do because I'm on the Titanic myself....fing iceberg dead ahead!
You don't seem to be the person who can get away with hatred as a motivator, your lover not a fighter...well ok maybe neither...but it sounds good huh.
Just know this, If you want a pick me up and need a visit I'll arrange my schedule so that I can get away to Portland and eat your food and sleep on your couch...honestly..I would do that for you..I like Warsteiner beer BTW
Or why not take a drive up here, I'll find a place for you two to stay..in the park..but I'll show you the best cheap entertainment we have to offer, mountains, lakes, beaches and beautiful parks...
