I thought it was pretty cool when my dad told me he had joined a band, until he informed me that he would be playing the spoons and the triangle.

never the same
I watched her tiny tummy sucking in, her skin pulling tight against her ribs, her hand involuntarily closing on my index finger as she struggled for every breath, and I thought, "One day, is one day too much to ask?"

I have a clock in my living room that my dad loved and it stopped on the day he died at the exact time of his death.

My childhood finally made sense when I saw a cross dresser walk down the street and realized that that was my dad.

In order to feel as if he had some sort of control over his cancer, my father would search the streets for a dollar in change before each chemo session.

Standing next to my dad this Christmas, I realized for the first time that he's reached the age at which people begin to get shorter.

My dad died six years ago and I'm starting forget what he was like because it hurts too much for me to think about him.

My very married, sixty-year-old father obviously doesn't know that you can search by e-mail address on Myspace since he has a page that says he's thirty, single, and there for "dating."

Your husband never noticing you've had your hair done is bad enough, but my dad didn't notice when my mum broke her leg and had it in plaster.

The only reason I felt bad when my dad's girlfriend left him was it meant he was coming back to live with us.

My dad once told me, "Don't keep the Preparation H too close to the toothpaste," then, after a moment, I realized that he was serious.
