Greetings from Laurel Canyon!
It’s carbon and monoxide / The ole Detroit perfume / It hangs on the highways / In the morning / And it lays you down by noon / Oh Papa Hobo / You can see that I’m dressed like a schoolboy / But I feel like a clown / It’s a natural reaction I learned / In this basketball town
Last weekend I was struggling to have a cool Father’s Day. It wasn’t until mid-Sunday morning that I released I had the dates confused—Father’s Day is this Sunday.
Some of my friends would say I’m a cool dad but I grimace at the thought. Truth be told, I’ve never had much luck enjoying the day. As a youth I was often at the center of the party, but as a Dad I’m often left feeling more like a “party pooper” who can’t get his phone call returned from a “playa.”
Still hanging in the there. Let’s see what happens Sunday.
Best to all papas!
