This is kind of a bitter sweet holiday for me. My son lives with his mother in a far-away state, and I don’t get to see him very often. Its great to hear my son on the other end of the telephone saying, “Happy Father’s Day” and that is probably the best gift anyone could ever give me… but its just not the same as if he were here in person. I am grateful with the thought that my son actually loves me, and even though he can’t be here in person, he’s thinking of me.

This is supposed to be a day of celebration, of BBQs and family get-togethers… but as of right now, I’m here in my room playing online poker and typing out a blog posting.

But don’t feel bad for me, I have plans to meet a bunch of friends later this evening to have a “spa day” so-to-speak at a popular spa in Delray Beach… It will probably be just drinking and debauchery, but it just sounds better if you call it a spa-day.
