I have always had an interesting relationship with my paternal grandfather, Larry. Interesting is an ambiguous and undescriptive word, though it works better than other overly intense adjectives like strained, artificial, or neglectful. Perhaps it is more accurate to say that I have an uninteresting relationship with my grandfather, or that we don’t have much of a relationship at all, though even this would go too far, and so I settle for “interesting.”
