Dude, I got terrifically lucky to get the chick I did. I'd be a huge liar to say a kid doesn't scare the shit out of me, but this is something I agreed to long ago. I can't go through life not knowing whether I should have had a kid. If I don't, it may drive me crazy later wondering "What If?"
I bitch a lot, but to be honest (shit, you know this), like Neil Young said when he was inducted into the Rock N Roll hall of fame, "People think I'm sad, but I'm allright... I've been riding in limousines for a long time" (except the limousine part).
Besides, I don't really have the handcuffs. My old lady's got a great gig. I might be able to work this into a gig where I could work from home and start writing again. I've got a headful of shitty screenplays to pitch and half-assed sophmoric blogs to pump out. If Judy Miller can garner respect for the pap she pukes, a few of my jackass analogies could pay the mortgage, no?
