Hey gang,
Have you seen that new HBO show, Eastbound and Down? I caught the second episode with my roommates last night. It's about Kenny Powers - a self-destructive, washed-up ex-baseball super star that finds himself out of a pitching gig and teaching PE at his hometown junior high. He can't make ends meet so he lives with his brother and his young family. Hilarity ensues!
But I got to thinking, what can I do to avoid the life predicament that Kenny finds himself in? He's as cut out to teach PE as I am to sit at a desk on a 9-5. We were both meant to roam free; unimpeded by schedules, salary caps, or any other one of Man's Laws for that matter. While the world sees Tim driving a BMW, wearing nice khakis, using correct grammar, and drinking Coronas, Tim sees himself driving a 1988 Chevy Blazer in a cut-off and throwin' his MGD empties out the window. How do I equate the two? Sometimes I just need to stand up and shout out a reminder to the world that
Incorrigibly yours,
Tim
