BUT, sometimes, the things he says are really ridiculous.
We're talking about my upcoming job at Applebee's, and here are a few of the things he asked me. Now, these may not seem that ridiculous out of context. But my dad HAS seen where I am going to work. And I have told him these things before.
Dad
are you out in the open like at earls or joey tomatoes
Dad
do you have a head chef like in hells kitchen
Dad
did they tell you your hourly pay
He also has a habit of narrating to me what him, my mom, and brother have been doing, like so:
Dad
its been raining here in calgary steady for the past few days, michael did not work yesterday, but worked the afternoon today
Dad
connie and gordon, were in town today, visiting their son kevin, and went to supper with them at chianti's on 17th avenue, michael, and kevin's finance joined us
Dad
oh, no offers on the mazda yet, may have to lower the price
I don't know, correct me if I'm wrong, but this is a little weird. I hope my parents understand when I am less than enthused to talk to them sometimes. Anyone else got any weird parent stories?
Anywho, I need to be getting to bed, hopefully my sleep schedule will sort it out before Friday.
Later Days,

Gotta love his point form conversations. Apparently full sentences are not on that list of priorities...
ReplyDeleteMy mom is in the habit of telling me what I do or do not like, even though I am perfectly able to decide for myself. And this isn't just things that I used to like and no longer do. For example, we were at a restaurant awhile ago and I tried a bite of my sister's meal, and I was like "hmmm it tastes kind of funny, I don't like it" and my mom was like "of course you like it! It has all the things you like in it, don't be silly" and I was like "no, I really don't like it".
