The Story of the Dude (Intro)

I've been asked to share the long & somewhat convoluted story of how the Dude & I came to be together... and because it's long, I am dividing it up into pieces.

Setting the scene:

I am the child of divorced parents. I am 12 or so. My dad is finally back in my life, and making a concerted effort to spend time with me and my brothers. My mom is cooperating, I go to visit my dad one week, and then things started to happen.


More to come!
