The Coolest 70-yr Old Man

My Daddy turned 70 years old yesterday, February 2. Gash. How young. I treated him to lunch at Nielsens. Gusto daw niya buffet kasi diet daw siya. Marami daw kasing choices like salads and fish. Dami niyang kinain ha, rib-eye included. Promise, he's the cutest.

On one of our conversations, I asked him if he's happy. Sabi niya, if you're old na daw, you don't have much issues na. Wala na daw siyang masyadong wants in life, except to eat. Din's bubble thought: kaya pala ang dami niyang kinain. And he's forever on a diet.

And then he mentioned that he was going to Angeles, Pampanga the next day. He's riding his bike daw going there. I thought he's going with his group of bikers. Di daw, alone lang siya. I freaked out and sounded like a mother to him. "Ha?? Naku Daddy mag iingat ka, maraming loko mag drive sa north expressway! Lalo na yung mga bus dun, wild magmaneho." He told me he'll be okay, kasi naka convoy naman daw sa kanya si Pilo (his driver for 22 years now). To which he adds, "atsaka pag ayoko naman nang bumalik ng naka motor, sinasakay ko lang yun sa likod ng pick-up tapos dun na din ako sasakay sa pickup eh."

Aaarrrggghhh. Wanna eat him alive. Cute eh.

To the coolest, grooviest man in my life... I love you to bits. Bless your heart, Minyong.
