When I was in my hyper-planning phase for the studio -- a phase you may remember lasted more than two years -- I occasionally got frustrated because I wanted dad's opinion on one thing or another, and I felt like he wasn't really paying attention.
This, it seems, is because I'm more of a future-worrier than dad is. His planning-mind kicks into gear when the project actually kicks off.
Now, he sometimes calls me while I'm at work, totally busy with other things, and gives me long lists of the various things I need to remember to look into/check on/work on, while I frantically scramble to remember what this whole 'construction' thing is and find somewhere to write it down.
We actually balance each other fairly well -- I'm prone to over-planning to the point where I don't start, he's prone to starting and then having to take a break in the middle to work things out, stuff like that -- but it's pretty funny.
