Sometimes daddy wants a drink so bad he'd be willing to kill you and Mommy in your sleep for it. Just one. But it passes after daddy takes a few cleansing breaths and "plays the tape all the way through."
Well yes, you could say that daddy is sick. But it’s not like when you had pneumonia last year. Daddy doesn’t take medicine for his sickness. In fact, daddy stays well much better if he stays away from medicine.
Well, when he gets sick he prays to Jesus to remove the bondage of self from him.
No, you cannot try to pray away your crooked teeth. Actually, you can, and who knows? Maybe you won’t need braces. Which would definitely help mommy and daddy’s finances, which in turn helps daddy keep from getting sick and wanting to take medicine that’s bad for him.
You know how much you love peeps? Well, multiply that times about a thousand. And imagine what would happen if all you wanted to do was eat peeps all the time and so you did until you got sick.
Yes, just like you did Easter before last when you ate almost a hundred peeps and threw up in the backseat of daddy’s car on the way back from gramma Jo’s house and daddy had to go be quiet by himself for the rest of the day.
But so did you want to eat more peeps after you threw up yellow and pink froth all over the back of daddy’s car?
You did?
Well, then daddy would suggest to you, although you’re free to make your own decisions, that you never so much as taste booze.
Daddy’s disease is hereditary. That means you probably have it.
