06/20/2004 Archived Entry: "Father's Day"

So far the day has gone pretty good. Tabitha came running in at exactly 6:28am to tell Chris Happy Father's Day. I decided to be a good wife and took the child out with me while he slept. After an hour, I started his breakfast. I decided to make him breakfast burritos because he absolutely loves those; pan-fried potatoes, soyrizo (veggie chorizo), scrambled eggs, refried beans and cheese all wrapped in a giant flour tortilla. He woke up just before I was done and was happily surprised. Tabitha gave him his card and hat that she made for him before he got a chance to eat. I also gave him a card and gift. See, he has an old Swatch Watch from the '80s. He hasn't worn it in years, certainly not since I've known him. The band is broken and the battery is dead, but he found out a few months ago that he can get the band replaced at the Swatch store. He's been talking about it ever since. So today I planned to take him to the store to pick out a new band. I wanted him to have something to open though, so I printed the directions to the store and rolled it up like a scroll and then put his old watch on the inside. He loved it and thought it was a great idea :) So after we were all ready we headed out to LA. We found the Swatch store right away and Chris went through their selection until he found a funky one he liked. They also sell batteries there so the salesgirl replaced that for him. She also did a real nice job buffing the face of the watch. After that, we walked around the shopping center for awhile before heading home. Right now, Chris is out shopping with his dad and then we'll go to an early dinner with him and my mil around 4:00pm.
