Day With Parents

I thought my dad would love the "Flags of our Fathers" movie, and I thought he'd like the beer at Grappa's too, so I thought we'd have a father/son thing. He loved the movie, and he liked the beer. My dad called my mom up while we were at Grappa's, so we ended up having a family snack (quite easy when there's only three of you in the family). Chit-chat, small-talk, you know, but dad ain't used to places like that (he did like the beer, though).

I'm glad my dad had a good time. And I'm glad we spent some time together, it was more meaningful than when we ate lunch together last Sunday (which we do every week), much more intimate. I'll probably propose we do this from time to time, I'll just make sure that it's on my time (my dad wanted it to be a regular weekly thing, nuh-uh :P).
