go spend w/ the father of yr child instead.

send dad a telegram.


i see my dad everyday.... and he's very good to me, i.e. he pays for my boy's school etc. but i see him so often... spending time with him isn't necessary. i just need to get him something thoughtful. or cool.

manga... it was good natured sarcasm. i want to get him something personal and inexpensive, but i don't know what that'd be.


I figured. It's kind of tough to recommend something without knowing the person. Especially if you're trying to be personal.

Think of something he likes to do and then get him something associated with that - like tickets to a sporting event or a day at the golf course.

girlgun is a mommy? OMG, she is the fucking best.

girlgun 06.13.2008 02:30 PM

it's just so hard. god.

for example, manga. he has tickets to EVERY sporting event already. even women's softball. he doesn't play any sports, not even golf.

he travels extensively and drills oil wells for fun.

i think i might have an idea!

oh, the way you wrote it sounded like he despises you ha ha.

well fuck, get him some flowers-- take him to the horse races-- buy him some biotech stock-- what the fuck do i know? you know him better than any of us put together yo.

Cool, you just made me fall more in love with you.

girlgun 06.13.2008 02:35 PM

i'm thinking maybe i'll get him one of those books that has all the old (like from the 20s, 30s) pics from oklahoma... a lot of them have pics of oil wells, drill sites, etc.

like this

*That joke was brought to you by watching too many British TV comedy in the seventies.
