I Suck At Taking Care Of My Daughter

I'm on vacation from work this week.

I had visions of spending quality time with just my baby daughter (Briana) yesterday. With the commercial aspect of Father's Day already over and the big family gathering that usually accompanies Father's Day over, I thought yesterday would be a great way to celebrate my own Father's Day.

I wouldn't have to worry about my parents. I wouldn't have to worry about my father having a good time. It would just be me and my daughter for the day. Unfortunately, I suck at taking care of my daughter.

Truth be told, the day actually started off well. Briana was good early on. Lately, she has been mesmerized by her fist. She keeps making a fist and staring at it. Then she looks at her other hand... only to be in awe that there is a fist on the other hand too. It's cute.

And then... the fussiness began. Tears. Crying. And that was just from me. Just kidding. Briana was simply not herself yesterday. I have since come to learn that this may be normal due to the active weekend of attention she may have had. I guess Mondays are like hangovers for her. Although when she's is 21 and tearing and crying on a Monday, it actually may be a hangover.

Regardless, Briana's fussiness made for a long day yesterday. It was definitely not how I envisioned the day to be like. That said, it seems equally fitting that I ended up watching a horror movie last night. That movie: Urban Legends 2 Final Cut.

(The video below is a trailer for Urban Legends 2 Final Cut.)


For anyone curious, Urban Legends 2 Final Cut is the 2000 sequel to the 1998 slasher flick, Urban Legends. Having seen the first Urban Legends a long while ago, I was surprised to find out that there was a sequel. And like most things, I had to watch the sequel after discovering that there even was a sequel.

The only common link between the two movies is the security guard played by Loretta Devine and the surprise special appearance at the end from the villain of the first movie. Aside from that, that's it.

It should come as no surprise that the movie was terrible. I could have written a better slasher flick than this movie. The only interesting things about the movie was that it had Eva Mendes and Joey Lawrence (WHOA!) in it... although for the credits Joey Lawrence went by Joseph Lawrence. But yes, on a whole, this movie was pretty bad, which again was a fitting ending to the day.
