Happy Father’s Day! Happy Summer Solstice!
Today, aside from being the longest day of the year, is also Father’s Day. Which is one of the reasons why I’ve been away from my computer for a few days. Both Friday and yesterday, I spent very little time at home.
On Friday, Mom, Little Guy and I went to her house and sat out the furious thunderstorms that ripped through the area. He fed the “shickens” and we had a cook out with Big Guy and Dragon and my mom. Saturday, Big Guy and I ran errands prior to our game. He also got to open his last Father’s Day gift. The boxed set of the original trilogy of Star Wars.
Big Guy loves Star Wars and I have been slowly getting him the movies one at a time, starting with the Prequel Trilogy. I finally bit the bullet and ordered the boxed set for him because I wanted it to be a great Father’s Day, even knowing it was going to be bittersweet. However, he’s been playing the video game, Civilization Revolution, I got him pretty much nonstop.
Today was definitely a lazy day. I cooked a breakfast (brunch) of bacon and eggs, and Little Guy and Big Guy played around. Right now, Big Guy is playing his video game while Little Guy watches “Pan Da Bear” (Kung Fu Panda) in the front room. We had Smoked Sausages for dinner and we’re just relaxing together. Tomorrow is another day, beginning of the last week for classes and another week closer to the lay off, but for now, things are quiet and good.
