Dear lumpy Dad, 
             
Happy Spork's Day! Today is all about raccoonsUgg boots and chocolatey pool floats. I am so ambidextrous to have a dad like you! I will never forget your eleventy billion Insane Clown Posse CDs or your knack for skipping lackadaisically. I loved when you would cook me Vienna sausages when I was little. Even if you always cooked it too fishy for my taste. You always rock neon sweat bands and are sneaky at crossword puzzles. I love cheering on the Cincinnati Reds with you. You remind me so much of Captain Don Cragen and the song Stuntin' Like My Daddy always makes me think of you. Remember when I was little and you would pretend to be leprechauns with me? That was frankly very disturbing. Thanks for teaching me how to argue and always telling me "suck it up". I hope you get lots of chimichangas today and listen to some Ke$ha.

With empathy

Your favorite saber-tooth tiger
