My dad turns 61 today.
Over the past few years, I made a few blog posts about my dad’s birthday. Some funny, some emotional, some just plain meh, most of them lost on a old hard drive somewhere. I’m thinking that “59 reasons I love my Dad” was probably my best work.
This year I’m going with plain dumb:
Let us begin.
Turning 50 61 is a monumental event in a man’s life.
Some men have been known to be traumatized by reaching the half 61% century mark.
And with this in mind dear father I’d like to make you feel more comfortable about your age.
And so, LeSombre proudly present:
Things that are older than dad!
This is dad. He’s 50 61.

50 61. dad.
(He’s on the right in the picture.)
Some might think 50 61 is old, but they are things that are even older.
The lightbulb


The wheel


Fire


Dirt


All these older items have one thing in common, they have proven themselves through the test of time, and we need them very much.
Just like dad!
(With apologies to Bill Cosby)
And since I’m not that big on an asshole, here’s something cute from my living room:

I love you dad. XXX

Happy Birthday BlogDad!
Wait….when we got married, did he say “Please….call me Dad!” when I said “I’m so drunk I don’t remember the shot-gun blog ceremony Mr. Marcheterre?”

It’s crazy how much you look just like him.

@DutchBitch: *dutchysmootch*? My Birthday is July 20 so you know…
@Sybil Law: Thank you!
@SheilaCSR: He’s the strong silent type. He probably didn’t say.
@Avitable: I was afraid you’d say you’d fuck him.
I almost did, just for laughs.

@Avitable: Just so you know, I pretended you did and I laughed.
Dear LeSombre’s Dad,
My mom is older than you. She’s 69.
There. That should make you feel better. But make my mom feel worse.
I’ll quit while I’m still in one piece.
Happy Birthday!

So… just what EXACTLY are you trying to say about Jon & Kate?
You know… if he lived in the US… he’d only be 4 years away from getting a Social Security check.
Just sayin’.
I’m not jealous or anything.
No, really.
Not in the least.

Ok ok ok.
Maybe just a little.

@CMG: Thanks for trying!
@NYCWD: I hate Jon and Kate. We have social security in Canada too, eh.
