Is she fattening me up for slaughter?

My daughter brought a gift basket for my father's day gift.

Barrio Blonde six pack

Fat Ass Blanco Tequila {100% Agave}

Bruscetta Artichoke

A small loaf of Westphalian Pumpernickel

A 4oz wheel of Swiss Knight Gruyere

8oz of White Wine Salame



And my son, whom I hadn't heard from in a year-and-a-half called me.

Good day all around.

We have not spoken in a long time and the relationship has been on the rocks for 6+ years. It's nice to hear the kind of call I made makes a difference.

Happy Father's Day!

If I were out your way, I might impose upon you... bring some tacos and join you in cracking open that tequila.

Ah, one can dream..

he was just saying that he hadn't heard from her for a while. She never sends any cards, i.e. birthday or father's day, but she did call him on father's day and really did MAKE HIS DAY.

While I was on the phone with my son, my daughter showed up.
Random synchronicity.


I hope your recovery is swift and sure.
