Greg and I stopped by
Greg and I stopped by Mike's new place down toward the beach before dinner. His daughter is soooo cute. I didn't get to visit much with Mike between playing airplane with Angelle and finding creative ways to convince her to finish her dinner. She sat with me in this overstuffed chair in the den and settled into a very somber tone... as somber as you could expect from a four year old girl... and with serious eyes she started to speak,
"Clayton, I was so so so sad today."
"Why were you sad?", I asked.
"Because my daddy was gone at work all day and I missed him so much."
I quickly replied, "but your daddy is right here now..."
"I know!" (as giant smile stretches from ear to ear) "that's why now I am so happy!"
It was the most disgusting display of daddy's girl syndrome I've ever seen in my life... it was alllllllll about daddy...
if I ever have kids, they better be exactly the same way. Heh.
After Mike's, we drove downtown in search of spring rolls. I think we ate over a dozen spring rolls at Van Loc before our entrée even arrived. It was good to spend time with Greg again and it not be a wild and crazy night out like he and I used to end up falling into. It was a very laid back evening with good conversation. I thought a lot of about EL as I always do... and wished she had been with me the entire time. I sent her some mixed flowers yesterday... just because. I was home and in bed asleep by 10:30. I was so exhausted. I didn't even hear the phone ring last night (again). She called me this morning and woke me up and I can't tell you how much I miss her voice being the first thing I hear in the morning. Really. Anyhoo, before I get any more sappy, I need to run. I promised Jean-Paul I would work on his computer today and I'm a man of my word, so off I go... despite the fact that I probably won't be able to "fix" his problem. Happy Saturday! Only 3 days to go!

There’s nothing wrong with being a “Daddy’s Girl”. Every girl should be. Everyone teases me that I’m STILL a Daddy’s girl, but I don’t care. I love it, and so does my daddy!
