I never thought of Dad as being very sentimental. But I found this sweet, emotional poem he write about you way back when. Let me see that. It's about a dog he had as a kid.

I wrote you a little poem for Valentine's Day. Do you want to hear it? Do I have a choice? No. Roses are red. I like spaghetti. Especially with meatballs. When will it be ready?

So what brings you to town, Leon? Writer's block. I've been drawing this comic strip about you and Opal for nearly 30 years. Frankly, I'm running out of ideas. I thought hanging out with you might get the creative juices flowing. Ha! Good luck with that!

Nice pen you've got there. In the old days folks didn't have nice pens like that. They had to write with a quill that they dipped in a bottle of ink. What's a quill? It's a feather from the rear end of a turkey that you sharpen into a pen. Ha ha! For a minute I thought he was telling the truth.

You sure have a lot of leaves, Grampa. Yes, I do. I wrote a poem about them. Would you like to hear it? Yeah. Fall is here the leaves have fell. I wish they all would go to … Earl! … the county landfill!

What're you writing? It's a list called things I'll probably never get to do at this stage of my life. That's an interesting list, I like #5. Have one of my novels made into a major motion picture. You've never written a novel, have you? Well … nope. Just a suggestion ... I think you can cross out the word probably.

Earl, why do you insist on writing on your hands? It looks terrible. It helps me remember things, you know how bad I am with names … Opal.

Earl, you've got ink all over your hand. Sometimes I need to write a little note to myself and I can't find paper. You should get a small notebook you can keep in your shirt pocket. That's a good idea. I'd better write that down.

Hello, Earl. This is Pearl. Is Opal there? Nope. Okay. Can I leave a message? Go ahead. Do you have a pencil and paper to write it down? Yes, I do. Go ahead. I don't mean do you own a pencil and paper. I mean do you have them in your hands, ready to write something down? Oh ... then no. I think she's catching on to me.

Just so you know, that piece of cake in the fridge is mine. I put it in a plastic baggie and wrote my name on it so there's no mistake. Understood? Understood. Apparently I ate a piece of cake names Opal.

What are you writing, dad? A Valentine's Day poem for your mom. Oh, that is so sweet of you! I'm kind of stuck. What's a word that rhymes with Oreo?

What're you doing, grampa? I'm trying to scrub someone's name off this cooler. I got it for $5 at a garage sale, but it had the name "Lowder" written on it in permanent marker. I've tried cleanser, bleach, WD-40, nail polish remover … nothing works!! Maybe you should just change your name to Lowder.

What's this? It's my new blog I just posted. That's an interesting start to your first paragraph … It was a busty time. What?! I meant to write it was a busy time!! What kind of blog is this? Are you trying to get something off your chest?

Earl, old buddy!! I haven't seen you in ages! Oh … hello … you. We should get together sometime. Do you have a pen and paper? I'll give you my number. Okay, got 'em. Go ahead. What's that … and invisible pen and paper? Oops. I keep forgetting, this only works when I'm on the phone.

My mother wrote down everything about my early childhood in this baby book. She recorded all my vitals: my weight, my length, the number of bumps on my head … Why did you have bumps on your head? Because I was a bouncing baby boy.

? Earl, why did you write your name on this leftover spaghetti? I was going to have it later, but if you want it you can I have it. I may have spit on it though.

Thank goodness Christmas is finally almost over. Don't get me wrong. I love Christmas, but it's exhausting. Writing and sending the Christmas cards, decorating the Christmas tree … Baking all the goodies, buying and wrapping all the presents … What are you talking about? I'm the one who does all those things!! I know. And watching you do them really wears me out.
