Happy Father's Day
June 10, 2010
Each year, before Father's Day, I ask my mother for some ideas what my father might like. As well as the usual drivel like socks and ties, he usually wants some crazy and totally un-gift like gift.
That's what I buy him.
Last year, he wanted a plastic car boot mat.
This year... I was giggling away to myself when Mattgreen walked in.
Mattgreen: What are you laughing at?
Me: My dad's father's day present.
Mattgreen: Well it can't be any worse than last year's.
Me: Oh yes. Yes it can.
Mattgreen: WTF?
Me: Come and see!
Why yes. It really is a stick-on wing mirror for a bike helmet. Oh yeah baby.
