The Glories of Uncledom
I normally don’t put a bunch of private lifey posts up here, but I thought it needed to be said: being an uncle is underrated. I just spent a weekend with my brother’s family in Bend, Oregon and the time I enjoyed with my niece Marly and my nephew Finnegan was, well, rejuvinating. One day I might very well have critters of my own, but the affection/responsibility ratio of the avuncular life is pretty damned good.
