Shocking, I know, but I was not always the witty stud you’ve come to expect from these columns. I worried about everything. Those first few years of high school were rough. I remember a particularly difficult night when I was around 15. What’s really interesting is that I recall being really upset, but I have no memory about why.\n\nIt was probably about school or bullies or girls or girl bullies at school. Maybe I was just worked up over the general state of the world in 1984.\n\nAgain, I was a nervous kid. It was a Sunday night and my parents were getting ready to go out. I knew that I’d have to go back to school the next day and face whatever was troubling me. They went to say goodbye and I just lost it.\n\nA total meltdown. Like big ugly crying at the dinner table. It was not my proudest moment. My dad’s a cool dude and we have always had a great relationship, but we don’t share a lot of common ground. He’s an outdoorsy/sporty/DIY guy and I’ve always been not that. But I know he loves me. He wasn’t sure what was troubling me, and he didn’t push to find out, but he figured out that I needed a break. That night, he canceled his plans and took me to the movies.\n\n### This post is for subscribers only\n\nBecome a member to get access to all content\n\nSubscribe now",
