Age 21 - 51 : think t is a douche.
Age 52 - 54 : hit bottom. Get fired for millionth time. Move back in with mom. Hide in attic.
Age 55 - 57 : think t is a douche.
Age 58(2010): realize time and money is running out. Start saying yes to t.
Age 63(2015): Gets easier after mom dies. Just knowing shes not gonna come around and pee on my parade. Guilt is an awful legacy.
