Just got off the phone with my dad...and he's moving back up here. To my city. That's not the part that makes me sad, because that's great news.
Well, first off, my mom and dad divorced when I was in kindergarten or first grade, and we've gone to see him every other weekend up until a year or two ago, when he moved to Osage Beach, MO, which is 3 hours away from us. Therefore, we barely ever get to see him anymore. However, we keep in contact via phone all the time. Anyways, back to the :(.
As you may imagine, he misses us like hell, but he's in a contract with a hospital down there that says if he leaves early, he has to reimburse them the money that they would have paid him, which is a load of bullpoop. He has another 6 months to go on the contract, but he's sick of it. He has no family or friends down there, and he's depressed and lonely.
Back to the call. The part that made me sad (I'm actually crying and feeling fairly depressed myself right now) was when he began crying and saying "I miss you guys...I miss you more than you will ever know."
At that point in the call, I'm getting watery-eyed.
The part that made me cry was when he said "I have no friends, no family, nothing down here. Imagine spending nearly a year of your life like that...it's hell. I miss you guys so much it hurts.", and started crying some more.
...I'm done typing, I'm crying too hard to see the screen. :(
Sorry man. Just get off of here and do something else to make you happy.
I want to post something like "LOL", but I would be an ass by saying that.
I'm sorry to hear that.
I'm sorry. :(
If you want, we could be blissfully ignorant and start a chat thread for you to lock. :3

Nah, I'm good without it. I'm a little better now.

Always hated stuff like Divorce. As long as you''re going to be together again, there's always something to look forward to ^_^

I would have done it, but you ruined the joke now.
Well, at least your father actually cares about you. Mine left before I was even half a year old, never contacts us, and doesn't even let us know any of his contact info. The most he does is pay child support fees and for some reason I get insurance from his employment in the U.S. Air Force.

Wow dude :-\
...:'(
Yeah, he called again...still crying, but this time he sounds anguished, almost.
He just kept saying "I want to come home...", and that set me off again. DAMNIT WHY AM I SO EMOTIONAL AROUND HIM
I really hope he does come home soon, I don't know if I can stand much more of this. :(

Yeah, but I don't know if he's going to see us for Christmas. I hope so, because otherwise it'll be a depressing Christmas.

Well, on the bright side, you're human... and once you hit anguish, there's nowhere to go but up, provided you constantly tell him you love him and a bunch of spiritual stuff.

crying is a safety mechanism in the body to get rid of overloaded chemicals in the brain that makes you sad.

If you, ya know, decide to run around in the 35ยบ night, do you mind streaking and filming it? <3
If not, I vent by breaking pencils. It just feels good to know I destroyed something in the world. >>

Good, it will help remove stress
I'm better now. My dad called and apologized for that little breakdown, and we talked and laughed for a bit...I think he's truly going to be happy once he moves up here, for the first time in months, maybe years.
Though I think he was genuinely happy - no, delighted - when I got Eagle Scout, and he was at the ceremony.
That's great. See, nowhere but up! ^_^ (BTW, does this mean no streaking? :P )

Cry, you need to liberate those feelings, or it will be bad.
