mine's a homeless old fart, i'm sure he knows i was thinking about him, even if i didn't send a card to the park bench in the town where i last saw him. i did however call leo's dad
 to wish him a happy f.d from leo, he was pleased about that.

Spicy: Lucky Dad!
Ally: That's sad. I'm sorry to hear that. Mine's okay. I'm just an irresponsible f*ck, is all.

nah, not sad at all, e's not really homeless as such, he just doesn't have his own home, kind of lives at other people's houses, changing every month or so (til he gets kicked out, not in a nasty way, just in a, ok can you please bugger off now way, he came to stay with me when i was preggers & after 2 months i suggested he move on & he didn't take it badly at all).

I wrote this and sent/gave it to all the favorite dads I know; mine's in Heaven but it's for him too:
this is to all the guys who step on tiny toes with big boots and feel like monsters to all the guys who try to tie a hair ribbon only to have the braid come out and the comb get stuck and the child begin to wail to all the guys who can't see anything wrong with ice cream for dinner or what's so bad about a little dirt and nobody ever died from eating still-frozen peas (did they?) to all the guys who ever taught a kid to throw a right cross or cursed a stuck valve in the presence of tiny ears only to have it come back to haunt them to all the guys who think that their kid is the next Coco Chanel or Martha Graham or Picasso or Mozart or Einstein or Dave Concepcion to all the guys who absolutely refused would not could not absolutely not ever never would change a diaper until the time came you are good at what you do you are loved for who you are you are the fathers half of how life begins and we love you happy fathers' day! - ckb, 6/20/04 |

Okay, I got out of that one alive. I called my Da yesterday to wish him a happy Father's Day and to remind him that the government changed the holiday from the 20th to the 21st. Apparently he didn't realize this. Phew!

i wrote this for my dad and grandpa...they both cried...
"I remember..." I hear stories of my Dad how he would rock me to sleep patting my back. But I remember his singing. I hear stories of my Dad of his tender guarded love for me. But I remember his voice. I hear stories of skinned knees, flushed cheeks, and tears. But I remember his hand on the back of my bike. I remember reading stories, hide and seek in the dark, tickling til I could take it no more. I look back and remember; I look now and more than ever know of his love "for grandpa on fathers day" Grandpa wont you let me climb up in your lap again curling up close for a story snuggled up against you on that plaid yellow couch take me in the backyard i want you to swing me up high my arms outstretched face to the sky while i pretend to be a airplane i want to be five for one more day
