Your Mommy's Alright, You're Daddy's Alright.....

They just seem a little wierd...surrender... surrender, but don't give yourself away..ay...ay....

To say the least, they're a little wierd.

I want to talk about synchronicity & magic, but I don't know if I'll get that far.

SO, the day you decide to get your nails done for the first time in your life... your real father decides to come (after how many countless years, I don't know) & visit. He ends up visiting the husband & baby before I even get home. Hmmmph!

It was alright. They were ok. I wanted to hurry home as fast as I could, but after the nail affair, I had to take the sister in law home... the whole time trying to race home & save my Sonny, from who knows what.... boredom? molestation? No!?
I'm just kidding, though it's a bad joke.

As soon as I get to my street. I slow down immediately & don't really feel like going there anymore. It's funny how cliche things come about in the most emotional of circumstances. The thought rushed through my mind, to just go shopping, or something other than home. Hell, if you can't do what you want, than what is life about right? Sonny would understand if I never showed. Well, needless to say, I went anyhow. And it wasn't as bad as I thought. Something in me was sorta embarrassed to even see what he looked like. Scared for him to see me.

Yeah, it was fine, we hung at the house for a few & he decided to take us out to dinner. We went to a restaurant called "Bernardo's" - Sonny used to work there & was craving their turkey burger.... Might as well have the old man sport it eh?
What a nerd my Dad is, while ordering food.... he reminded me of one of those guys on Saturday night live that did the hump dance... I swear in his own 70's way he was trying to be cool & hit on the waitress. I felt this squeal in my ears the whole time, uber aware of my father and all his movements & words. I still have yet to ask Sonny if he noticed any similarities between us...or if he understood me a little more from having to sit through an hour's worth of my fathers talking.

What meant the most to me that night, was Sonny. He didn't take one step into the bar, and he ordered an iced tea. (For those of you that read below...a few stories down...Sonny promised to TRY & stop drinking on the fourth.)(If you read any of this at all...thanks!) So, it melted my heart that he meant it, and he was trying. It will be seven days tomorrow. I'm flabbergasted, actually, and so too is he.

Anyhow.... yeah, so, we had food & he walked us out & we left from the restaurant. Now for synchronicity. This was my horoscope on this day...

Your sign is in charge of far off places,
people and cultures, and when you're not on the road, your only
consolation is to be in touch with someone or something that reminds
you of a distant place you love. So when it comes to long-distance
communications, whether they come about by email, phone or surprise
visits, you can bet they're very much on your top ten list of most
favorite things. That said, think you might be ready for a little bit
of all three? .......

That was spot on & on the way home from dinner, they played the cheap trick song on the radio.... Surrender. This is when I know there's magic out there. And also, it's strange to me that after I write about Sonny and his pop, mine all of a sudden blasts into town. So, hat's off to the fates!
