the thing is...

It's not that I wouldn't make time for you; it's just that I don't think you should be wasting time on me.

I do things like use a tiller to tear up the yard so that I can plant trees.


I was walking through the living room to get a glass of ice water when my six year old niece asked "Timmy, where's your harness?"

I had been fixing part of the roof and I was wearing a safety harness because where I was fixing was on the slopping part of the roof and if you start to slide or slip on this part of the roof, the first thing to stop you is the ground which also turns out to be the last time to stop you.

I found her question condescending, which made me smile a little bit because it showed she was thinking.
