(no subject)

My father emailed me; he replied to mine. Three paragraphs. It's the most he's said to me in 7 months. Since June the only other time I've talked with him is when I called home in Sept and he answered and then passed me along to Mum. It was a nice email. Still...... he made no mention of my engagement. Can it be that no one's told him? Or is it he's thinking snide thoughts and rolling his eyes on the other side of the globe? The latter is unfortunately most likely. I just don't have the emotional energy or mental space to deal with our relationship right now.
