I went to the SW classic bike show today. It was okay, I guess. I know it was bigger than last year [they had 5 halls instead of 4 and loads of stuff outside, but some how, it seemed emptier. I think it might have something to do with my Dad’s mate. Usually when I go to these things, it’s really interesting cuz Dad and I will talk about the bikes: how shiny they are, what this bit of jargon means, history etc. It makes the day fun and interesting.
This time, he was so involved talking to his mate that I wandered off on my own, just giving the shinies cursory glances. I know I should be happy that my father is, how shall I put this, preparing for the day I won’t be around so much, but, it feels like I’m loosing something. I love my Daddy very much, and these things where allways half daddy-daughter days. But It kinda feels like I’m being gently pushed aside and he’s already replacing me.
I must also be really tired, tireder than I realised – I’m crying a bit as I write this.
But the bikes were nice and usual, and it even snowed, but it still feels like it was a reather empty day.
On the other side, it’s Valentine’s day tomorrow, and I’m still holding out hope that Andy and I will do something nice. He did IM me earlier to ask what my plans for tomorrow are, I told him nothing, and he asked me over. I know I shall probably disapointed, but because I know he’s capable of it, it would be nice to get there and find he’s got something sweet planned.
Happy Valentine’s all *kisses*
