He's apparently fine, by the way. About 20 minutes later he was bouncing off the walls and acting like his usual nutty self.

It was kind of a surprise to both of us.

4. I awoke happy that my kids aren't two anymore!
Seriously, I'm glad your son is OK. Another month and a half, and I will no longer have any teen kids. Still not sure how I feel about that.

8. WOW! You Really know how to have a good time.....
I did some social work in a prison and I don't envy you a bit. Inmates there were some of the most immature idiots I ever met. mark

11. Now I know what I'm giving my dad for Father's Day - a blast from the past!
Considering that I'm 38, I think he'll be really surprised...

13. Good idea. I just finished up a really excellent bottle of scotch - I could use that
as a container and seal it up real nicely in the original packaging...

15. Woke up at 3, couldn't go back to sleep
So I whacked off for a couple hours, then got out of bed and had some corn flakes. In other words, typical morning for me.

20. Hubby got up at 10:00 am. Fixed him breakfast. He read the Sunday papers.
Told me he was taking a little nap at 1:00PM. He got up at 5:00PM. Dinner was served at 7:00PM. He has just now gone to bed for the evening. This is Father's Day when your sons are 19 and 22!

21. Sounds like how Mother's Day went here
Our daughter came down with H1N1 during the night and had to be hospitalized. For Father's Day they were going to take me fishing, but they all slept late today and didn't get up until it started raining.

23. True. I got the "something else" about two hours later, from the other end.

Well, as someone else said you'll have some great payback stories for his graduation or wedding reception. That and spoiling his kids rotten.

26. Hope you didn't use that great bleach/ammonia combo to clean up!
Sorry to hear it, though. Ah, the joys or parenthood. Think I've had that happen on Mother's Day as well.

27. Got up, drank coffee, drove my son 200 miles to Camp, drove back
The camp is in a beautiful part of West Virginia, my lovely 9 year old daughter went along for the ride and my wife stayed home with the 2 year old, so it was a pretty nice day all told. A beautiful day to drive 8 hours.
