 Oh Daddy
 

Oh Daddy
   Song by Fleetwood Mac

      Oh Daddy,
      You know you make me cry,
      How can you love me,
      I don't understand why.

      Oh Daddy,
      If I can make you see,
      If there's been a fool around,
      It's got to be me.
      Yes, it's got to be me.

      Oh Daddy,
      You soothe me with your smile,
      You're letting me know,
      You're the best thing in my life.

      Oh Daddy,
      If I can make you see,
      If there's been a fool around,
      It's got to be me.
      Yes, it's got to be me.

      Why are you right when I'm so wrong,
      I'm so weak but you're so strong,
      Everything you do is just alright,

      And I can't walk away from you,
      even If I tried.

The very first time I heard this song, it was right after a romantic candle lit dinner at the home of my date. He put a Fleetwood Mac album on his stereo which I supposed was his favorite group at the time, but until then I've never even heard of Fleetwood Mac. I think the song was one of their not so well known among the best hits, but when I heard this song I felt as if the artist was looking into deep within recess of my heart and kept tugging and twisting at it. bringing back my father who died a decade before.

There it was, the memory of my father gazing at me with such adoration, telling me how sweet and beautiful I was, that I was his perfect angel who couldn't do any wrong in his eyes. When I knew darn well I was full of flaws in my mother's eyes. To her I was exasperatingly absent-minded girl who was a disappointment when compared to my brilliant older sister and brother who were excelling in academics by consistently making the top grades and being the president of student bodies with IQs that are bordering on genius.
I was just a bookworm who lived in a dream world, always scribbling impractical poems and stories which, in her mind, equated to plain laziness. She used to tell me it's a good thing at least I had good enough looks that I could marry someone who is rich (at which I also failed because as I matured physically and emotionally, I've somehow developed terrific aversion to all rich men)

My father was the one truly altruistic man I've ever personally known who has completely devoted his life to helping others, never mind of the fact that it frustrated my mother no end that he wasn't interested nor capable at making money for the family or accumulating wealth.

Fleetwood Mac has been one of my favorites ever since but this song will always have a special place in my heart, and to this day I am not ashamed to say the song has the power to cut my heart and bring tears to my eyes.

 What Type Of Writer Should You Be?
 

You Should Be A Poet


    You craft words well, in creative
    and unexpected ways.

    And you have a great talent for
    evoking beautiful imagery...

    Or describing the most intense
    heartbreak ever.

    You're already naturally a poet,
    even if you've never written a poem.



    I always imagined I'd become a writer someday... but never a poet. I've never
    heard of a poet making a lot of money
    from the craft, have you?

 Funny Letters to Dear Abby
 


DEAR ABBY: A couple of women moved in across the hall from me. One is a middle-aged gym teacher and the other is a social worker in her mid-twenties. These two women go everywhere together and I've never seen a man go into their apartment or come out. Do you think they could be Lebanese?

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

....I've been married for six years and have five kids. No twins. My husband still wants to have sex every night and sometimes in the morning too. I told him he should get himself a hobby, and he says that is his hobby.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

.....I have a man I never could trust. Why, he cheats so much I'm not even sure this baby I'm carrying is his.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

.....I am a twenty-three-year-old liberated woman who has been on the pill for two years. It's getting expensive and I think my boyfriend should share half the cost, but I don't know him well enough to discuss money with him.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

.....I suspected that my husband had been fooling around, and when I confronted him with the evidence he denied everything and said it would never happen again.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

.....Will you please rush me the name of a reliable illegitimate doctor?

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

.....Our son writes that he is taking Judo. Why would a boy who was raised in a good Christian home turn against his own?

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

.....I joined the Navy to see the world. I've seen it. Now how do I get out?

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

.....My forty-year-old son has been paying a psychiatrist $50 an hour every week for two-and-a-half years. He must be crazy.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

.....I was married to Bill for three months and I didn't know he drank until one night he came home sober.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

.....Do you think it would be all right if I gave my doctor a little gift? I tried for years to get pregnant and couldn't and he finally did it.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

.....My mother is mean and short-tempered. I think she is going through her mental pause.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

.....I met this nice guy who was in the service. He's the chief petting officer.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

..... Then you told some woman whose husband had lost all interest in sex to send him to a doctor. Well, my husband lost all interest in sex years ago and he is a doctor.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

.....This is the second marriage for both of us. And when my husband said "I Will" he knew damn well he couldn't.


DEAR ABBY: I've been going steady with this man for six years. We see each other every night. He says he loves me, and I know I love him, but he never mentions marriage. Do you think he's going out with me just for what he can get?

GERTIE

DEAR GERTIE: I don't know. What's he getting?

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

DEAR ABBY: My husband hates to spend money! I cut my own hair and make my own clothes, and I have to account for every nickel I spend. Meanwhile he has a stock of savings bonds put away that would choke a cow. How do I get some money out of him before we are both called to our final judgment? He says he's saving for a rainy day.

FORTY YEARS HITCHED

DEAR HITCHED: Tell him it's raining!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend is going to be twenty years old next month. I'd like to give him something nice for his birthday. What do you think he'd like?

CAROL

DEAR CAROL: Never mind what he'd like. Give him a tie.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

DEAR ABBY: Are birth control pills deductible?

KAY

DEAR KAY: Only if they don't work.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

DEAR ABBY: Our son was married in January. Five months later his wife had a ten-pound baby girl. They said the baby was premature. Tell me, can a baby this big be that early?

WONDERING

DEAR WONDERING: The baby was on time, the wedding was late. Forget it.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

DEAR ABBY: Do you think about dying much?

CURIOUS

DEAR CURIOUS: No, it's the last thing I want to do.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

DEAR ABBY: Is it possible for a man to be in love with two women at the same time?

JAKE

DEAR JAKE: Yes, and also hazardous.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

DEAR ABBY: I know boys will be boys, but my 'boy' is seventy-three and he's still chasing women. Any suggestions?

ANNIE

DEAR ANNIE: Don't worry. My dog has been chasing cars for years, but if he ever caught one, he wouldn't know what to do with it.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

DEAR ABBY: I have always wanted to have my family history traced, but I can't afford to spend a lot of money to do it. Any suggestions?

SAM IN CAL.

DEAR SAM: Yes. Run for public office.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

DEAR ABBY: What inspires you most to write?

TED

DEAR TED: The Bureau of Internal Revenue.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

DEAR ABBY: When you are being introduced, is it all right to say, "I've heard a lot about you"?

RITA

DEAR RITA: It depends on what you've heard.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

DEAR ABBY: I am forty-four years old and I would like to meet a man my age with no bad habits.

ROSE

DEAR ROSE: So would I.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

DEAR ABBY: What's the difference between a wife and a mistress?

BESS

DEAR BESS: Night and day.
