The idea...
That in five years, I mean, it's a ridiculous thought.
But my dad didn't get married till he was 40, didn't have me till he was 42.
And he was my hero.
So I just thought that's what I will do.
And then I met this woman who I just couldn't picture any future days without her in it.
And it just happened early.
And I remember going to my dad and saying, this is the woman I want to marry.
Um, and he, and he was just like, absolutely not that it is way too early.
It is irrational.
It is, you know, and I just, I remember saying to him, well, you're invited to the wedding.
If you want to come, if not, I'm doing this.
And, uh, and, and that was my, my position on it.
And, uh, he had to kind of find his way to the reality of that.
And I, and two biggest decisions of my life were in defiance of my dad who I married and the profession I went into.
No, no.
He said, why do you want to go and be a jester?
Yeah.
Which is what you do for a living.
You're so nice.
