“Papa, Can You Hear Me?”

This Sunday will be the first time the McVie Family will celebrate Father’s Day sans titular head. But my older brother will be there together with his wife and two children, so he’ll count. And who knows, maybe even Daddy might be there in spirit… literally. Where’s my “I-see-dead-people” officemate when I need her?

Maybe we’ll have lunch at Dad’s first. Then we’ll watch “The Sixth Sense” on DVD. I can play Madonna’s “Oh Father” on repeat mode. And we’ll crack “dead dad” jokes the whole day.

Okay, so the chances of doing all those are unlikely. Except for the “dead dad” jokes—I’m sure we’ll all be up to it.

And since it’ll be Father’s Day maybe I should start looking for a Papa. Or I could be one myself! Papa-kainin, papa-aralin, papa-sayahin… at papa-pakin! Mwhahaha!
