I must say that despite having to work, I have really enjoyed my father’s day. The first time I woke up it was to a very cute little boy kissing his daddy saying, “Wake dad”. Then he went downstairs. Ignoring Gavin’s request and knowing that it was too early to really get up, I went back to sleep. A little while later, I was awakened again. This time to go eat breakfast and open presents. For breakfast, I was fed “pie”, as Gavin told me. What was laid out on the table was a plate full of waffles. Also there were bowls of blueberries, rasberries, strawberries whip cream, and little smokies. Mmmm. Talk about a breakfast. I was so full afterwards. But that doesn’t mean I didn’t have room for the bar of Lindt Truffles that Holly bought me. Oh yeahhh. Then Gavin told me I had presents to open and he brought me a present to open. He helped me with all 3 of them. Two books and a shaving mirror for the shower. Our old shower mirror is useless. Especially now, he he. That was pretty much my day. I got to spend some time with Holly as I drove her to work at around 10:30am. Then I went home and played with Gavin until mary carried him off to the 50th State Fair in Honolulu where the Scottish Dance Group was performing. This left me all alone in the house for 2 1/2 hours before I had to go to work. I called my dad of course. Then I proceeded to wash some dished and then do nothing. Well, almost nothing. I watched a movie that we bought the other day. Holly will have to watch it another time. Holly and I don’t get to watch many movies together anymore. But I think that we will get to watch this one together (one day) since we own it. Now I’m getting ready to close the theatre. It’s about 8:45pm or so. Not a bad night at the theatre. All my co-workers wished me a happy father’s day. I should be at home and in bed by 11:30 PM. That is my father’s day. Oh yeah. While at work, I went to the video rental store in the shopping complex here and rented “Carnivale”. The first two episodes anyway. I want Holly to watch it because it is an awesome show. I highly recommend it. See it…….NOW.

Getting worn out
I decided tonight that I was going to do my best to ditch out of work. I just need a break I guess. I called a fellow employee and asked him if he could cover my shift for me. Unfortunately he was working at the time I asked him, but he did say that if I started the shift, he would relieve me when he got off. So that is what’s going to happen. That will be cool. I can have the rest of the night off and eat turkey and be with my wife. I hope her class went well today. She doesn’t like it all that much. I guess they all can’t be fun.
Things are looking up
Wow, that title could mean so many things right now. But I’ll focus on this one. On monday night, I went with Holly to class again, determined to gain back the confidence I lost the previously at Volcano Joe’s. And I did just that. This was Holly’s fist class in this session and she didn’t show up to VJ’s until 8pm. This gave me time to eat a super yummy Roast Beef sandwich and play two songs. The first song I played was an “Alice in Chains” song. In doing so, I appealed to another person who had signed up. He followed by playing a “Radiohead” song. He was cool. He loves to sing and was good at it. We chit chatted and found that we like a lot of the same music. The night went on and we ended up at the mic together. I played guitar, and he sang as the cafe filled up witht the sounds of “Creep” by “Radiohead”. Other than that, I played a few songs which I felt were pretty darn good. I ended the night with one of the best renditions of “Nothing Else Matters”. It felt really good and I so look forward to doing it more. On another note, I received a phone call from my brother’s fiancé. She wants me to get measurements for my tux so they can rent one for me so I won’t have to worry about bringing one. She also is going to send me a cd with some songs that she would want me to play at their wedding. I hope that they are songs I will be able to play well.
