Stealing from Alastair – or – Havin’ a laugh

September 20, 2010 · 2 comments

I’m being upfront about this. Alastair Stephens found this on YouTube, shared it on his site and then on Lucy March’s site. I’m stealing it from Lucy.

Why would I do such a horrible thing? Stealing content? It’s bad, is it not?

certainly. I could explain it to you, but I think I’ll just show you:

I think it’s the dad thing. My own father passed away a few years back. Not that he was every very involved in my life.

My kid’s father is pretty serious. He’s a decent dad in his own way, but not much good for just havin’ a laugh. I had a friend – a guy – that I used to ride around with. Not in a back hoe – it was a pickup. But boy, he was great for havin’ a laugh. I miss that. He used to say “Don’t sweat the small stuff.” when I had my knickers in a twist. I liked that life with him was relaxed. He smiled a lot.

He wasn’t a father then. But I bet he made a good one. Someone to have a laugh with.

I hope Lucy and Alastair will forgive me for hijacking content from thier blogs. It’s just that they always have the best stuff!

Part of the fun in sharing something sweet and joyous is seeing other people share it in turn, Kate. :)

Hope you’re having a good day!
