My dad’s birthday is February 15th. (Mom’s birthday is February 13th of the same year – crazy!) I swear he is IMPOSSIBLE to please when it comes to gifts but he does have a sweet tooth, which is probably where I got that from. I gave him a box of Godiva chocolates for his birthday and they have not been touched. Every time I see the unopened box I get a little sad… because I want to eat some of course!!
Me: Dad, why haven’t you opened the box of chocolates?
Dad: Oh, it isn’t opened yet? *takes it out and starts to open it*
Mom: What kind of chocolates are inside?
Dad: We’re about to find out… *lifts the lid, chooses a chocolate* MMMM. WOW. Good choice, Fern. Mmmmm. Wow, it’s so good. MMMMMMM.
… and he continued like that for at LEAST a minute, about 5 times longer than the average person would gush about a chocolate. LOL.
I felt awkward because it was so obvious that he wanted to show his appreciation for this birthday gift from over two months ago. I began to walk out of the kitchen.
Dad: Wait!!!
Me: What?
Dad: I thought you were going to share these with me…
Me: *stops walking and turns around* hmmm… OKAY! ^___^

Ryan: Alex, stop shifting into 2nd gear so fast. Don’t jam it in like that, you have to ease into it slowly. This is why cars have girls’ names. Cars are like women; they are fickle beasts.
Me: ARE YOU CALLING ME A FICKLE BEAST…?
Ryan and Alex: YOU ARE.
Hahahaha yeah, it’s true.
