jianantonicMy dad's not very talkative, ever. So you'd think when he did have something to say, it might be extra meaningful or poignant. Well...
"I was trying to push a button on my iPad, and it wasn't working, so I called the guy and I told him it wasn't working and I asked if I was pushing the right button and he said yes, that's the right button. He told me to try pushing it again and I did and it worked that time."
Not quite the same kind of epic as the tale of returning the pair of pants without the receipt, or the one about putting the wrong stickers on the license plates, but it's up there.
He also said that he agrees with some of Bernie's ideas. He's not voting for him...but the fact that he could even admit to agreeing with him was mindboggling. (This comment on the same day as a few other unsolicited opinions about "the blacks" and "the gays," who just stir up controversy as hobby, you know.) My dad frustrates the hell out of me...but I love him, and I'm glad he's my pop.
And today he turns 75. They grow up so fast...
Happy birthday, Daddy :)
