I guess the post is quite simple today, as it's just a need to vent. Atop a few other worries I've had recently, I found out last night that my father likely has liver cancer. They say it's not definite, but the verdict has been passed once and the second and third guesses aren't looking too hot.
Probably won't be a full day at work, me thinkst. I have an urge to work on some music anyway, so maybe the downtime might prove productive.

About me
I'm very elitist in my musical tastes, hence my music. I don't create music to seem talented or make a buttload of money, I simply create what I enjoy and throw it out there for others who might enjoy it.

sucks
sorry to read that even tho i agree that inspiration can be gained from everything, and that making some music may relief your sadness and prolly make you face whatever comes in a better way I'm so sorry to hear of this... Now is a time to be gentle with yourself and loving with your pop. In whatever way feels most natural. Be hopeful. Folks defeat cancer all the time.
Sorry to hear it. Have some hope and be strong for your father.
hope things get better for you. i sort of wonder about my own dad sometimes with all the excessive drinking he's done in the past. cancer can be unpredictable i suppose, i guess problems should be an inspiration for hope to make things better.
I'm really sorry to hear that, dude. Definitely agree with Fredo, and I'm sure just being there for your dad is the best thing you can do in the world. Also, don't feel bad about gaining inspiration through something like this. This is the exact definition of inspiring. Plus it's a great way to vent.
that sucks. all you can do is support him and your family. just be there. hope for the best but be prepared for anything.
very sorry to hear, send positive thoughts your way
its good that youre still making music, youre bound to capture some very odd feelings.
dont worry about your dad, things work themselves out.... sending some north pole your way oh no
 sorry to hear this "hope for the best but be prepared for anything." yer, echoed.
'Ey, thanks for the good thoughts, folks. I ended up working the full day after all, and I'm not even mentally fatigued where I can't work on music. Which is rare, I'd be working so much more on music if I didn't have real work to do. Anywho, next week I'm taking off to head back to New York to see my dad. He's not entirely weak, but the enflamed liver makes strenuous work next to impossible, and there's a lot of it to do after a nasty winter. So I'm gonna help him with that stuff, aside from just plain spending time with him. Just gotta finish the week and be as calm as he is about it, which is more often than not, thankfully. Damn my brother for blowing it up in my face...
I give my best for you and your father.
sending good vibes you and your dad's way.
