It’s my dad’s 66th birthday in a couple of months and it’s the first time in like 10 years that I get to actually be there on his birthday (i’ve been living and studying abroad and with his bday being in november i never had the time or money to see him for his bday) so i’ve been searching the internet high and low for a good present to make up for all my absence for his last birthdays, especially his 65th. my dad doesn’t really match any of those options but i do like this idea of Q&A and then sort of determining who he is and what would be a nice thing for him 🙂 was gonna get him the standard aftershave, maybe an armani one from http://thelondonperfumecompany.com/ but naaaah this sounds like WAY MORE FUN!!!
