Thinking of my father

Today's NaBloPoMo prompt is "What's the first thing that pops into your mind when you think of your father?"

Disappointment.

It's a long story that I'm not really up for getting into right now. I didn't grow up in the same household as my father. He wasn't around much. We never developed a close relationship. We still don't really understand each other.

On the other hand, he raised my half brother, who is one of my favorite people on the planet. So, I guess my Dad can't be all bad ... or at least he had astute taste in mothers for his progeny.
