I recently talked on the phone with my father. I had not spoken to him for a while. The whole experience was surreal because he doesn't appear often in my life. It reminds me of childhood.
I recently spoke to my father for the first time in years. It reminded me of my childhood and the distant past.

Cool.  Somethings never change.  What did you reflect upon?

We spoke about our recent lives. Apparently he is in the market for a new car.

Yeah, I miss my dad.  He died several years ago.  What kind of car is he looking for?
