A much needed talk..

So, yesterday before my concert, my dad and I went to get a burger because I hadn't eaten since breakfast, and it was dinner time.

We went to Sonic, which was pretty tasty. We also talked for awhile about things. My dad went Vegas last weekend, and ended up having a beer, even though he has been trying to sober up. He told me about it, and thought I resented him (which he talked to Austin about).

Austin told me that before we went to get something to eat, and it bothered him, and made him sad, so I decided to bring it up to my dad while I had the chance.

So, we talked about everything. And the cool part was, there was no lecture, no flapping of the arms, and no voice raising. It was a totally normal conversation.. Almost like a conversation two friends would have. It was so nice.

I told him what Austin said, and how I don't resent him. My dad said he thought I would because he was still mad at his parents for putting him through the crap he went through. He said he was surprised I didn't resent him because he put me through what he did.

I told him that it really, really sucked, but that it made me who I am today. I told him that everything happens for a reason, even if the reason isn't show for a long time.

I told him how I felt, and it went well. I was pretty surprised too, but I took advantage of the time. He's a totally different person too. He's been pretty down since Vegas, and I could tell.

Things went well though, so I feel better that I could talk to him..
