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.

Wow, that's bad. I'm sorry he feels that horrible.

Yeah, I hear you. He's fairly mobile, though. He can get around and isn't bedridden or anything. He just lives in the past when he could do all these things that he can't now.

He certainly inspires me to kick life's ass now while I still can!
