I'm trying to decide what should be my word of the evening tomorrow night. I have to go and sub for my dad's partner in his card league. I went a couple of weeks ago and it was quite amusing. My dad plays in a hi-lo-jack league, (or for those in the rest of the country, they play 'pitch') and some of the people are hard-core. I fear tomorrow night we'll be playing a team of two women who are affectionately known as the "piranhas." Great. I must also note that my mother refuses to ever play on my father's team because he feels the need to give the Monday Night Football recap after each hand to tell you what you should have done. Thankfully, he didn't do it to me the last time we played because I carried the team. It's all in the luck of the draw, baby, and I was getting the cards.

But that wasn't the amusing part of the night. The funny part was my dad with me. He still wants to live in a world where I'm 10, and not 29. I know, that's a Dad thing. But we like to have fun with it and tease him about it from time to time. He also makes it too easy. Last year, one of my mom's friends decided to jokingly ask me if my boyfriend was a good kisser to see what my father did. He was aghast, "What do you mean, yes? You shouldn't be kissing him!" I had to remind him that the boy was, in fact, my boyfriend, and that sort of comes with the territory. You should have seen his face last week when we were all talking about a porn shop chain and I commented that one of them is a lot nicer than the others. I still don't think he really believes that I've been there. (It really is nicer than the others) Anyway, when we got to cards, he had to call everyone over who was passing by to announce, "this is my daughter!" It was so cute. That statement is usually met with the standard, "Well, who wouldn't have known that? She looks just like you." (Next time I should respond with, "Yes, but I have boobs and no penis" to see what they say.) When I was introduced to one woman, my father said to her, "Now watch your language tonight, my daughter is here." I just laughed out loud. Oh shit! I'd better watch my damn dirty mouth then. He did realize later that he was being a little silly, but it was still funny to watch. And the best part of the night? When we were leaving, my dad said to me, "Hey, you played well tonight." Coming from him, that is like saying I just cured cancer. It's nice to still make my daddy proud every once in a while.

And P.S. to the piranhas - tomorrow night your asses are mine, baby. See? I can be hard-core, too!

Celebrity Boyfriend of the Day: Keanu Reeves
Oh my God, I just realized that I had forgotten Keanu all of this time. I thought I listed him months ago. Sorry, my little Hawaiian beauty! So yeah. Keanu. He's hot. I remember having little pictures of him from Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure hanging on my closet. We've been together ever since. And I don't care what you say about the quality of the film itself, Keanu was still at his hottest in Point Break. Keanu in a wet suit? [thud]
