Happy Father's day!
I woke up at 9am. It's a spiritual battle indeed as I tried to overcome my slump. I knew that Saturday was ruined and I was unsure how HR would respond to my absence. Quite frankly, I don't want to get in trouble, but I don't really care. I felt like crap in the morning, yes, I did. And today's a very nice day for the dads. It was raining though. But I didn't care too, since I love the rain. I went to church to shake off this slump and to refresh my soul.
Service ended at 2pm. And mom and dad wanted to stay first. There's an issue -- apparently. I stayed behind with them, because I wanted to be with my dad for today. We left at 2:30pm. I still wanted to clean my room. I needed an hour at least to clean up my room, because we were expecting guests this 3pm afternoon. With less than 30 minutes in the clock, upon stepping inside, I rushed to pull the bed sheet, grab the vacuum cleaner and find a damp towel.
Well, how should I put it? The guests arrived at 5pm. They said 3pm. Arriving at 5pm is not even Filipino time.
Lots of folks at home.
On the flipside, I told my special girl to tell her dad a Happy Father's day. I asked her if her dad has a Facebook account. She said her dad doesn't have one. *sad face* I was also telling her that she should greet my dad a Happy Father's day via Facebook PM. I just put my hand on my forehead when she said that she's shy. There's really no reason to be shy. I mean, I'm already telling her.
Come evening, I went to the bank to withdraw money. Then we passed by McD's for some coffee. It was still raining, mind you. On our way there, I saw a man standing by the door with a coat and his hands folded. I asked him if he was okay, and he said he's fine. I thought to myself, okay then. I went inside and grabbed three cups of coffee for free. And then I asked him again if he was cold or something-- he said he was fine. So I went ahead inside the SUV and drove home.
The whole point of today's visit was a Happy Father's day barbecue, but since it's raining, the plan didn't work 100%. Guests left around 9pm~ish. And sadly, there was no barbecue left for me.
