Description

Bobby and I are starting to get a bit annoyed with each other (if you couldn’t tell) and we are coming to the end of our time together. I’m becoming more controlling and he’s making me that way!
It all started with a confrontation over the microwave. On the plus side we’ve gotten close enough that we’re starting to call each other out… but is this really a good thing? How much progress are we really making?
So, we’ve decided to try to improve our father-daughter relationship further with a tip from the “how to be a good dad” blog post we went through a few episodes back (see: Your Texas Suck)... we’re going to learn Spanish together. My hope is high, but my expectations are very low.
Needless to say, our quest to learn Spanish wasn’t the most productive it could have been and it didn’t help that Bobby decided to take a phone call in the middle of it but we did cover a few other… weird topics. It turns out Bobby decided to perv on our online Spanish teacher (who by-the-way is in a video, not a live person), we talked about a Valentine’s surprise he gave me as a kid, a really disappointing Christmas and he thinks it’s OK to crush on your cousin because it’s just a phase.
It’s time to do some parenting scenarios with the childhood version of me so we can learn how to be a dad, and Bobby’s got some weird advice to share. Distant dads,  maybe don’t take a phone call in the middle of reconnecting with your father. Daughters, reconnecting is hard and those insecure feelings are totally normal.
This is a frustrating one but I think we made a little bit of progress? Here’s to hoping! And don’t use the microwave, it’s not good for you.
