An odd day
Today is Father's Day.However,due to the fact that I never had kids of my own and my own Father passed away some two years ago now,it kind of leaves me feeling a bit odd.I keep wondering if not setting down with woman,getting married and starting a family was the right decision.I am a person who doesn't like to do what is expected of them(a non-conformist rebel of sorts),so for a long time the idea of having a wife,home & 2.5 kids(one of each sex according to the ideal American Family) repulsed me.I wanted to do my own thing.While I did get the home and the steady job,I didn't have the family.I guess that now that I'm hitting middle age(I'll be 44 in two weeks),I start to wonder what life would have been like to have been a father.Oh,well.I guess I'll just play the hand life has delt me and see where I end up.

Hey thanks for the comment, I never check this puter but I need to more. I glanced through your journal and was amused at all the comical metal videos...from cookie monster to poka, celtic, than pirates-some combo! The Clash - Should I stay or should I go is the only one I had heard. And sounds like you have more dogs than me...lets see, 2 Bostons,2 Pyrenees,and 6 Border Collies. Hopefully you will have better luck with your pups.

I know where you are coming from thinking about fathers day. I have really enjoyed doing my own thing now for 30 years...and always said I would be better alone than with someone that makes me unhappy and believe that truly. But after turning 30 really got me thinking along those lines and I realized I don't want to be alone so I have tried to do all I can to improve my odds of meeting Mrs. Right. Signed up for myspace and facebook and out of the 2200 friends (stick your foot in the door) have had over 70 ask me out so far. I didn't know there were so many single mothers out there! Very few I have found are real jems.

I visited the churches around and have been set up umpteen times and went out with 2 preacher's daughters and starting to date another one now. (19 has been a good age for some reason) I went to some of the party's around and had 2 girls lead me back to their trucks but I don't want those to marry. I am like you and don't know the cards I will be dealt but really want to have my own family before I let time slip away. I don't think it is ever too late so if you really have those feelings as the song says "put a girl in it". I guarantee if you look hard enough you can find just what you are looking for and if she is young enough you can make those dreams into reality and give your pups a little one to lick on.
