My father and I aren’t particularly close and he doesn’t show emotion at all (I guess thats why most gay guys associate most with their mothers), but today I got the impression that he was upset by the fact that I ignored/forgot father’s day this year. On Mother’s day he glared in a very mean way and acted as though the gift I gave her (a Hamilton Beach BrewStation, she loves coffee) somehow interfered with his life. In addition, he has always hated opening gifts… so why would I trouble him with something like father’s day? Today he seemed bothered that I didn’t acknowledge it in any way… I guess even the most annoying emotionless rocks need to be told that they are loved occasionally.
