I was going to write this post yesterday night for father's day, but I'm
a procrastinator like my dad so I did not get to it. Lol. So as you can
see I will be writing about my pappy. I will try to write everything
that comes to mind when I'm writing about him. First I will tell you my
dad has been in my life since I was born. For that I am very lucky. I
know a lot kids don't ever see or know their dad. But to be honest I
didn't have much of a relationship with my dad before the age of ten.
Yes he lived with me and my sisters, he worked and provided for us. Made
sure we had clothes and food to eat, and school supplies. But not
really a relationship. I don't have that many memories of him as a
child. He never really talked or played with us. Then he wasn't really
the emotional type. My mom was the one who did all of that. I remember
him playing playstation in his room, I'm pretty sure the game was tomb
raider. He had the game guide right beside him in case he got stuck or
something while playing it. I remember him setting up the brand new
computer we had got. He taught us how to get to the games and taught us
how to play them. I also remember when he gave sara her Nintendo 64 and
gave me my Gameboy color, the game I got with it was a Bugs Life. He
took me and Sara to our soccer practice one time. And I also remember
when he walked my new bike inside on Christmas eve. It was a pink bike
(I was disappointed when I saw it at first) It had neon colored beads on
the wires on the inside of each wheel, and had ribbons coming out of
the end of each handle bar. The seat was white and so were the tires. My
sister Sara got the same bike I did. I don't know if he just didn't
really know how to talk to us since we were all girls, or if it was just
him sad in an unhappy marriage. But when my parents split when I was 10
in the 4th grade was when I finally got a relationship with my dad. My
parents didn't fight over custody for us. We got to see and be with both
of them whenever we wanted. Looking back at it now I guess the divorce
was a blessing in disguise because I don't know if I would have the same
relationship I have with him today if they didn't split. Something in
him changed. I think maybe he didn't want to lose us either cause of the
divorce. So he started to make the effort of actually spending time and
talking to us. Which I loved. Cause at the time I blamed the whole
divorce on my mom. I can honestly say I almost hated her because of it. I
didn't understand why she didn't want to be with him or why she didn't
love him enough to stay. And because she had gotten with my now step dad
so quickly. In my head I thought she was trying to replace my dad and
was trying to make dino my new dad. I gave my mom hell for it. Even
though I didn't really have a relationship with my dad I defended him to
my mom. To everyone. In my eyes my dad could do no wrong, It's still
that way now. Lol. So I wanted to be with him all the time whenever I
could. He would come pick us up like every other night and take us out
to eat. It was kind of weird at first because it was like meeting him
for the first time. Yea I've know him all my life, but I actually
started to get to know him. He still wasn't all emotional with us. But
it was way more than what I had been use to. I found out my dad pretty
much dislikes everyone. Lol. He likes to watch cartoons. And if he
thinks or finds something funny in a movie he will quote that line every
chance he gets in a conversation. He hates to go grocery shopping. He's
a hermit. He loves Chinese buffets. He's addicted to soda. His favorite
thing to cook is breakfast because its easy and delicious. All of my
mom's friends and family annoy him. Lol. (some of them annoy me too) He
loves animals. His favorite car brand is Chevrolet, he hates Ford. He
likes video games. He thinks he's always right, even when he's wrong.
Lol. He's lazy when he's home but when he works he's the best. He's not a
fan of spicy food. He'd rather sleep on a couch or a recliner than a
bed. His favorite color is red. He's the king at talking shit and making
fun of everyone. He flirts with every girl cashier at walmart. He loves
to annoy his mom. Lol. He prefers to wear over sized shirts so no one
will see his man boobs or his gut. HA HA HA. He's the loudest snorer in
the world! He doesn't liked to be tickled. And if you try he will punch
you in the leg or throw his sandal at you or grab your foot an pull your
toes until they pop. And if you want something from him you have to
clean the house. He likes Cars and guns. He won't admit it, but he likes
to gossip. He'll try to make you watch a scary movie with him so he
won't watch it alone. He wont watch the original Exorcism movie. He's
hardly ever drinks. He use to smoke cigarettes but he quit a long time
ago. Those are a few fun facts about my dad. I have a great relationship
with him. He gives the best advice about everything. And he's always
there for me and my sisters and my mom financially, and if i need to
talk. I remember I was playing around with him one day and i pulled his
chin beard pretty hard and i tried to run away so he grabbed this brush
it was solid wood and had a thick metal ring around it. Well he grabbed
it and threw it at my head while i was running out of the room. It hit
me on the side of my forehead and i fell to the ground. That shit hurt!
Lol. I had this big lump on the side of my head and it was throbbing. He
was too busy laughing at me to see if i was ok. When he was done
laughing he told me thats what i deserved for pulling his hair. Lmao.
Don't worry I wasn't seriously injured or anything. Thats how me and my
dad play around. We fight with each other. This other time..well I
can't remember if i hit him and tried to run away again or if I was
annoying him but I remember I tried to run away so he picked up his
sandal and screamed Tomahawk!!!!!!! while he threw it straight into my
back. That shit hurt too. Lol. Him and my sisters were all laughing at
me. I'm guessing I deserved it. I was laughing too cause he screamed
tomahawk cause i was really into tomahawking on the black ops game for
Xbox. I also remember me and him were at walmart once and we were in the
hair accessories isle looking for something for Shannon. And at the
time Destiny's child had a song out called "lose my breath" Well in the
middle of the isle i randomly started to sing the chorus and did like a
fast little dance move. My dad just looked at me and busted out
laughing. He still makes fun of me til this day cause of it. Lol it was a
catchy song and i forgot I was at walmart and started to jam. Ha ha.
Thats my dad's way of showing he cares..he makes fun of you and or talks
mess to you. Either or. I remember when he took me and my sisters to go
see Shrek in theaters. That's one of his favorite movies. I remember
that day cause it was the first time he had taken us to the movies
himself. See my dad is a home body. Because everyone annoys the hell out
of him. So he usually just gave us the money and my mom would take us
or we would go with friends. He also took us to go see the movie "300"
but I fell asleep right when it started. Because I was high. I don't
think he knew, if he did he didn't say anything. And if he didn't and he
reads this then he knows now. Lol. I tried to stay awake but the
previews were so boring and it was dark and the chair was really comfy.
Ha ha..My dad use to cut the grass with this huge white and red tractor.
Like this nigga was huge! And one day he let me sit on his lap and
steer it while he had his foot on the pedal. That was awesome! That day
he let me and my both my sisters steer it. I think I was in the fifth
grade and my dad came to pick us up from the trailer to go eat or
something well I had to go back inside to get something I forgot well I
came out running cause I didn't want to keep him and my sisters waiting.
Well we have a rocky drive way and I was running at full speed and i
tripped over a rock and fell hard face first into the drive way. My dad
came out of the truck laughing at me. I almost cried but I saw him
laughing so I started to laugh too but my eyes were still watery but I
was laughing. I was caught somewhere in the middle of crying and
laughing and I think that made my dad laugh more. For some reason he
always laughs when I get hurt. I was washing dishes once and I guess I
was washing the glass to hard and it broke and I ended up cutting my
knuckle pretty bad. I started to freak out but he told me to calm down.
Then he started to laugh at me and called me a dumbass. Lol. My pappy is
so nice isn't he? Ha ha. He may not be the most perfect dad in the
world. But he is my dad and I'll always love him. I threaten him
sometimes that when he gets old I'm going to throw him into an All men
nursing home. Lol, then he threatens me he's going to leave me out of
his will if I do that. Ha ha. Dumb fatboy. Well that's all for now I have written enough. I hoped you enjoyed the read. If not oh well. Have a great day and God bless.
