Dad REALLY Wants Me Gone
Mar. 29th, 2008 09:47 pmWhen we went to Hillbilly's the second time this past week, there was a 1999 Hyundai Tiburon 2+2 sports car also parked out front. FOR SALE.
Tonight Dad made me look up the Blue Book value on the car (via Yahoo!) to see if the asking price was reasonable. After seeing it, "so far, so good" was his apparent judgment. I wonder if he's thinking of selling the Buick to buy it...or just keeping the Buick around and parking the Tibby in my "old" parking place in the Rather Manor carport!
I think he's wanted a sports car again since selling his Dodge Daytona soon after moving here (because he needed a pickup truck).
What's worse?--the "long goodbye" or the "we're already making plans for once your side of the nest is empty"?
