I think I might not be a loner after all.

2. I'm a loner. married, with adult kids.

So far as I can tell I won the loner lottery.

My own parents are odd, very very "eccentric artists" odd. They've retreated from ordinary life to live in a remote rain forest. I've never seen the house they now live in except on the internet. I have no money to get there. But even at their very, very, very craziest my parents were never "f*cked up people." They've always been honest with us, their children, about everything, especially when it most mattered.

I'm a very lucky dog. With "normal" parents I'd probably be dead. One of my childhood weirdo geek friends had "normal" parents. He's dead.
