I had to put in extra hours at work. To hit your points up in reverse order: yes, I am a man. No, I didn't come up with "cowboy up, kiddo," but it's a phrase that I've borrowed from my dad to tell people that it's time to knuckle up and quit complaining about shit that ain't that bad. There's no such thing as dying early. You're done when you're done and it's all about the good you can do in the time that you're alive. Finally, that list has nothing to do with my experiences in life, except for possibly number one; and even that was more attributable to me growing up traveling and having to prove myself as the new kid in town. After all that, I grew up and put it behind me.
