Today, my dad insisted on having a family movie night. He chose the movies Jaws and Mayday. I'm going on a diving expedition tomorrow. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I saw my dad sitting in the car alone, blaring classical music, blowing up beach balls. FML
Today, I got stung by jellyfish. As I writhed in pain on the beach, my dad comes up and asks me to be quiet, that I'm embarrassing him. He also mentioned that jellyfish were out today and that I should be careful. Thanks, dad. FML
Today, my dad vehemently refused to let me go on vacation to France with my best friend, because he watched Taken a few months ago and apparently forgot that it's just a movie. FML
Today, I went on a movie date with a guy. He brought his mom. FML
Today, my dad watched his first Lord of the Rings marathon. Now he keeps spouting lines from the movies, and thought it'd be funny to hide in my closet, just to jump out at me screaming, "My precious!" FML
Today, I arrived for the two-week scuba diving vacation I spent months saving, planning, and looking forward to. Today, I also developed an ear infection and can't scuba dive for 2 weeks. FML
Today, I got stung by jellyfish. As I was writhing in pain on the beach, my dad comes up and asks me to be quiet and that I'm embarrassing him. FML
Today, I asked my dad if he'd like to go fishing together, but he said he was busy with errands. Later, in a casual conversation with my friend, she opened up her phone to show me pictures of her fishing with my dad. FML
Today, my dad thought it would be OK to make sound effects for everything he did, in a public park, with me tagging along behind. FML
Today, my boyfriend was complaining about how we never see the movies he wants to see. So I took him to the movies, and he picked which one. Then he fell asleep. FML

You don't even know! I was exposed to those movies early in my years and I can't go in a lake without thinking "there's someone out there that's gonna get me" or at least by the ocean.

Just don't eat any peanut butter snickers squared candy bars before diving in the water.

as a diver, you're much safer as another large, moving body in the water. do some research on the water you'll be diving in, find out what kind of sharks are native there, and you'll actually feel a lot better after finding out what their hunting habits are, and whether or not they even will be home this time of year. another fun fact... I've seen dolphins bump sharks away from people. if dolphins are a popular inhabitant of your destination you'll be even less likely to be eaten alive. THAT, or you are the one unlucky statistic that gets totally ******! ha! just to offer some reassurance, I live on North Padre Island and am a surfer of one year and my boyfriend is of 22, in the water since age 4. sharks occasionally get a nip at a dude's foot but only because we leave them dangling in the water when we sit and sharks mistake foot for fish. hahh.

Maybe it's his way of saying, "I love you. Be careful?" *snort*

Just make sure you don't start your period. :)

I think that the OP's dad has a quirky sense of humor, and that the OP is just a little bit nervous - both of which are natural and pretty normal things. I'd be worried if I caught my dad stuffing my wet suit with rotting meat however! ;)
