Bad Daddy
A comedy conversation

About an hour ago I decided that my daughter needed a bath, so I started filling the tub. We have a big, deep soaking tub, so once I got the temperature right, I put her in it while it was still filling.
Then I got busy with Zug and Twitter and Facebook, following everyone's travels to ZuG15 and becoming obsessed with whether or not I was going to be able to make it to Boston, and even though I was sitting right there on the floor next to the tub, I kind of forgot about it.
Then I heard a worried voice say, "Daddy, I swimming."
The tub was about to overflow, and Bridget had her head tilted back so she could keep her nose and mouth above water.
Drowned child would definitely be a good excuse to get out of working this weekend, but I'm pretty sure if it had come to that, my wife wouldn't let me go to Boston anyway.

What do you mean bad daddy? Are you new at this or something? About once a week I purposely almost drown, run over, stab or otherwise kill my son just so he grows up knowing that if I really wanted to, I could end his life.
Really helps with the discipline. Not so much with the night terrors.

You just saved a three dollar pool admission fee.
You're not bad, you're frugal!

Whistler: "I have some good news and some bad news about our daughter."
Whistlette: "Let's have the good news first, dear."
Whistler: "She wasn't a witch."

Or future appearances on Maury Povich?

At least Lobsters dad always paid attention to her when she was in the tub.

I seem to be raising all my children differently. For the first one, I was over-controlling, perfectionistic and demanding. He's about to finish his B.S. degree, completing the four year program in 26 months. He's a neurotic, overachieving supernerd. For the second one, I determined to be relaxed and let him express himself as he saw fit. He's extremely creative, artistic and musical. Right now, he's on vacation, sailing in the Mediterranean off the coast of Sardinia. Then he's going to Paris for a week. Without either of his parents. We haven't heard from him in two weeks, but we're not worried and we're sure that he's not worried. He's the most relaxed, easy going, adaptable guy you'll ever meet. He'll probably never work a day in his life.
My brother just turned 50, and is the first male in our family history to live that long. I was 46 when my daughter was born. In all liklihood, I won't live to see how she turns out. So I pretty much let her run amok.

It doesn't matter how you raise her. When you die, she'll end up in a home with all the other retard babies who can't speak anyway.
OH MY GOD, WHY DID I JUST SAY THAT?

Maybe you missed the part where she said, "Daddy, I'm swimming?"
Even if it did sound more like "Daddy uh fwemuh."

No, I was mostly focused on the part where you left her in a tub of running water. I'm glad she can talk, though. I'm sure it puts your wife's mind at ease. She should be worrying about other things, like you giving the baby a bath.
Heh.

Um, let this serve as a warning that you should never allow other people to use your computer at a ZUG event while your account is still logged in.
