Turning a new page in the life of a Fox

[shilala]

I did the same thing when I was 35, brother. Well, kinda the same thing.
My wife didn't do anything, she just mostly b!tched at me and stuff.
Tomorrow I turn 42 and I'm kinda thinking about getting a job. I miss having a real job. A steady income would be something new, too.
The cool thing is that since my daughter was born 12 years ago her and I have been tied at the hip, because I've always been 100% available. She's the the most incredible human being I have ever met, and she works really hard at teaching her Dad to quit being such a dick. That relationship is the single most incredible thing that's come out of being semi-retired.
You're in for the time of your life. You're gonna love it.
If you need any pointers on how to do nothing and look really good doing it, just give me a shout. For additional inspiration, watch all the videos at oddtodd.com. It's good stuff.
Go to the grocery store tomorrow and get plenty of Pringles. They're absolutely essential to being successfully semi-retired.

If I read between the lines you still have mixed emotions about the whole thing. I hope you will soon consider this a blessing and a terrific accomplishment. Enjoy your family! Well done!
