WTF, Dad?
You know there are two people in the world who can really get me upset.
One is Justin, who is actually really great 99% of the time, and his birthday is tomorrow. Happy Birthday!
One is my dad, and he is a big jerk. And I have to live with him 3 months out of the year.
I like him 10,000 times better when he is talking about molecular chemistry than when he is talking about my personal life. Stick to amines, stay away from amor. Okay, dad? I know you would really like me to not lay eyes on any guys (and they should never be graced by my presence) until I meet some nice, rich doctor. But while doctors may be rich, they are often total assholes.
Example: The pre-med student who I sat next to in my American Studies class. He was not only an asshole, but also an alcoholic. Oh, and he was from Overland Park. Need I say more?
Uh, anyway, Dad is not fond of anyone I’ve ever showed interest in (which is why he has met few of them, and only briefly), and he was even annoyed that I bothered to mail Justin a birthday card. Apparently, I am expected to cut all ties.
Thank you, Mom, for not telling him that I’m actually getting dinner with Justin tomorrow.
Woah there. Not everyone from Overland Park is bad. Just a bunch of really vocal and visible ones.
I apologize on behalf of us… but don’t lump us all in the same category.
Thankee.

Yeah, yeah, I know. You’re the exception.
I’m just doing my best to foster the Douglas County/Johnson County rivalry.
(Go Douglas County!)
