Happy Father's Day!

Dear Dad,
I don’t think they celebrate Father’s Day as much here in Mexico, or at least it’s not as big as in the US. Can I use this as an excuse for why I’m not calling you to wish you a Happy Father’s Day? Really, I only call you when I’m in the states on the weekends to save your dime, so you think I’m gonna spend 30 pesos a minute here when I’m paying the cost to be the boss? You know I’m cheap, but where do you think I get that from? From you Dad, and I love you for it.

ps. I’m also really forgetful (or not paying close attention half the time) and I honestly forgot that it was even Father’s Day until this girl I was hanging out with mentioned it. I thought about you for a few seconds before she grabbed back my attention. Then I quickly lost focus on anything that didn’t pertain to what I was doing with her. Again, in my defense I can only point out that I am my father’s son, molded and shaped in his own ways. But that doesn’t mean I don’t love you Dad or that I’m not thinking about you.

Happy Father’s Day!
