Father's Day

[twasadark]

I love my dad. I really do, despite the few (okay 58,000,905) issues I have had growing up. Now he's in his 70s and life is getting tough. I called him to wish him a happy Father's Day and this is what he said:

• I can't see
• I can't breathe
• I don't even get enjoyment out of TV anymore
• The world is going to hell
• I hate life and hope to die soon

Sigh. Someone kick my ass if I ever become that negative, okay?

Our daughter got my husband a beer holster for Father's Day. He's planning all the places he can use it (meetings of the homebrew club, parties, etc.).

Oh, family. You are a neverending source of trauma amusement.

Yeah, I'm the same way. My dad's been like this for his whole life though so I don't suppose he'll do a Scrooge-like turnabout and be grateful for life. I hear what you say about it sucking my energy, too. Argh!
