Top 10 Reasons I love My Dad, Michael G. Olsen:
10. He can cook VERY well. I seem to recall enjoying my dad's meals more than my mom. (no offense, Mom). He makes the best homemade egg mcmuffin sandwiches that he'd put in mine and Shannon's car before we left for seminary because we were ALWAYS running late. I remember a couple times being so mad about having to get up so early that I would scream that I didn't want the breakfast he made me as I slammed the door on my way out. I feel horrible about that now. I feel horrible about a lot of things I said and did as a teenager, but I guess that's the benefit of having kids-so someday when I have my own ungrateful, teenager I can go to him and complain as he'll just laugh at me.
9. 6 years after high school, he'll still call to tell me,"Enterprise won last night."
8. Cannot, if his life depended on it, order from a restaurant without debating/questioning everything on the menu. Whenever my family goes out to eat, he orders last, and as the server gets to him, everyone looks at each other, trying to laugh because we totally know what's coming.. "Okeey....what's this Philly Cheesesteak? Is that pretty good?"
7. The smartest person I know.
6. Always asks me what I want from the store before I come into town and buys Coke even though I'm the only one that drinks it.
5. Let's Boots sleep on his lap, even though he says he hates her.
4. Will insist you follow him to the gas station before you leave town so he can put gas in your car.
3. Watches Mad Money on MSN everyday, even though I'm fairly confident he has no money in the stock market.
2. Still pays my car insurance even thought I've told him like, 100 times that I will take care of it.
1. Puts his family before anything.
