My Sad Story, by Dave from Knoxville.

On Saturday the 14th, my family packed up and went to the beach.

I must stay and work.

They will also miss (probably) my 50th birthday.

The End.

Jeepers. Thanks!

My kids drew pictures for me and bought me a flashlight for camping. My wife said, "Guess what. I walked around the mall looking for something for you, panicked, and got you nothing."  It was fricking hilarious.  And given that she let me sit on the couch for like two hours this morning to read the New York Times while she watched the kids, no other gift was needed, thank you.

I feel like a jackass.

No, please, don't! I am not a third as bitter as I sounded.

OK, not half as.

Alright, not 90% as.

'twas nice.

I got a Father's Day card from my dog.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

I can only feel a third of your pain, I only had to work. But, it was my first Father's Day.

My wife is taking me out to dinner tonight because the place we want to go to was in the thick of the Gaspee Days celebrations (the beginning of Providence and its smaller siblings', Cranston and Warwick, claim to Angriest City in the country) yesterday.

no father's day for myself or my father...but i called my brother!

he was pretty excited since his first is only 3 months old.  apaprently he bought himself a WORLD'S GREATEST DAD shirt.  between my phone call and his own indulgence, he had an awesome father's day.

Thanks, my son called me up and said "hey, uh, dad, happy's father's day. i don't really know what to say, so..........."

and then he put the phone next to his stereo, which was playing the Macarena song.

My father informed me two weeks ago that he wanted no calls on Father's Day, so I of course respected his wishes.  That was my little gift to him.
