chuckro | Father's Day

So, while Jethrien was off having her bridal shower, I went out to visit my dad. For those of you who don't read my sister's LJ, she and my mother are touring Europe right now, so my dad and I were doing the bachelor thing. Of course, we ate particularly well for bachelor boys, as I made breakfast burritos Saturday morning and grilled pork chops with mango salsa that evening. My father followed up with bacon and eggs Sunday morning, and we went out to the diner for late lunch/early dinner.

The big project for the weekend was sorting the comic collection, which it's been about two years since I last did (and probably three and a half since I've done in full depth). We sorted and bagged everything, and cleared out a lot of pamphlets that had since been collected in TPB or hardbound. We now have nearly-complete runs of JLA, JSA, Lucifer and Y: The Last Man, along with a lot of other assorted books to get rid of. If you're interested in them, make me an offer.

The rest of the time was spent lounging by the pool and just generally spending "quality time" with my dad. Which is cool, because I like my dad, and don't see that much of him nowadays.
