Happy Father’s Delay: Hip hop! Puppets! Procrastination! from Kid Ethnic (aka Saleem) on Vimeo.
My brother’s in NC, I’m in Japan, and lil’ Yasmin is in Brooklyn.
So, I started a little recording, and sent it around.
We each got one audio track. Saj and I had webcams, but Yazzy didn’t. So I did the best I could to visually represent her. Er, the best I could without, um, leaving my apartment or doing anything difficult.
Sorry, Dad. It took me a lot longer than I thought it would. We’re still goofball kids who like doing silly weird warbly things while we sing, and we still get carried away with projects and fail to finish then on time sometimes.
But we love ya.

And to think, I only sent my dad a card and called him on Father’s Day. Until seeing this I didn’t feel like a heel, but now I’ll have to reconsider my approach for next year. Dammit.

Ooh, just make a card out of pasta and craft paper. Dry pasta cards are the best.
