Lifetiming

"What's your job?"

"Comedy."

"What's the hardest-"

"Timing."

Old joke I know, but it's the story of my life. I always seemed to be just a few beats off. When I should have been just an innocent child, I was pretty much forced to grow up and look after my mother.

My teenage years were mostly spent working, while the time I was supposed to be building a career were just a hedonistic haze.

And now I finally find love. At sixty. While she's a dozen years older than me.

Still, you have to laugh. I could have missed entirely.
