And this is your friendly weekend update....

Today is Father's Day! For all you people out there who haven't been, over the past week, continually seeing massive huge posters sponsored by the Galeries Lafayette that read Mon coeur est à papa, today, Sunday, June 15th, is a day that you really should probably call your daddy (or wave at him in the kitchen, or something) and say hi. Just thought I'd remind y'all....

Father's Day is the same over there? Mother's Day is several weeks earlier, at least when I was living in Germany. Encouraged by the ads and cards and such, I remember getting up at some odd hour and going out to the pay phone to call home for Mother's Day, but my mom had no idea what I was talking about. I managed to convince her that all of Germany was silly and not just me, but it wasn't easy, given that I was all silly and sleepy myself.

Yup. Mother's Day is different in England, too, IIRC. Dunno about here.

Thanks, I need these reminders. I did send a card, but my dad prefers a call as well :) It's hard to keep dates and 'holidays' straight. Friday night, Will pointed out to me that it was Friday the 13th. Suddenly all the hotmail references from earlier in the day made sense. I had no idea ;)
