True Texts From My Dad


Germany!

8:49 AM TODAY

ME: Two hours of sleep. Here I go!
DAD: Duct tape to hold the eyelids open is what I recommend.
ME: I might fail grad school, Dad. Major Boop.
DAD: You still get an A-plus as a great daughter!
ME: There's always workin' at Jimmy John's.
DAD: A good place to regroup.
DAD: Just do your best.
DAD: Enjoy your life.
ME: Good advice, Poppa.
DAD: Take out any frustrations on the anti-abortion zealots.

Today I am really grateful for my family--my mom, dad, and sister who support me despite having no expectations for my success. In a good way.
