A Melodrama In Sligo
Dec. 13th, 2023 01:49 pm
The scene: I am arriving back in Sligo after a couple of days in Dublin.
The setting: Sligo Train Station
The performers: Myself; my father; a random older woman sitting next to Dad in the train station as he awaits me
Dad, rising from his seat, hands extended to capture mine: Catie, Catie, *Catie*! Oh, my darling! Let me *look* at you! Oh, *honey*! Let me look at you, let me look at you!
Me, embracing him: Oh, *Daddy*!
Dad: It's been so long! My darling girl!
Older woman: -happy weepy face-
Me, stepping out of the embrace, to Dad: You huge *dork*.
Dad: LOLOL
Older woman: 😳😦...😑
Dad and I are still giggling at ourselves 24 hours later. 😂
