Fairly boring commentary from an oversensitive, emotionally demanding computer nerd (with a not-so brand-new 4-year-old, and two cats)

Father's Day
This was my first one, and something I'd been looking forward to ever since we brought our boy home. Well, I'd like to say it was wonderful. I did get a day off from doing chores, which was nice. Otherwise, it was basically like every other day with a 2-year-old, a mixture of incredible fun, intense pain (when he landed on my nose), and general unpleasantness (such as when he refused to even think about eating his dinner). Maybe when he's a little older he'll treat me special on Father's Day, cut me some slack, perhaps. But thinking back I don't really recall that I ever really did that for my dad. Not that I treated him badly or anything, but I definitely took him for granted. Probably that was because the idea that he could be anything but a good father never really crossed my mind. If I can do the same for him I think I'll have done pretty well.Posted by markj at June 20, 2004 07:48 PM
