Of Inking And Shrinking
Dad: *points at nose ring* “That shiny thing on your nose. When did you get it?”
Me: “Dad, I’ve had my nose pierced for 7 years.”
Dad: “Oh…did I know that?”
Me: “Yes, dad. I showed you when I came home right after I did it.”
(He sits staring at my shoulders for a moment.)
Dad: *points at tattoo* “When did you get that knot…thing?”
Me: “You mean my first tattoo that I got 8 years ago, that I showed you and mom in the kitchen, right when I got home after the appointment, and you asked me why it was swollen?”
Dad: “So you got that before that bat…thing.”
Me: “I got the bat 3 years ago.”
Dad: “How tall are you again?”
Me: “5’3″, dad!” *pause* “Wait, why?”
Dad: “I think I’m shrinking.”
