Dos Anos

It was still September
When your daddy was quite surprised
To find you with the working girls

In the county jail
I was smoking with the boys upstairs
When I heard about the whole affair

I said "oh no William and Mary wont do"
Well I did not think the girl
Could be so cruel

And I'm never going back To my old school

Two years ago i arrived in Madrid with nothing but a suitcase and a wing and a prayer. My brain was overloaded and fried. I was going through a divorce and wondering if Annie was my child or not. I left everything i knew behind (except my friends and family whom i carry in my heart wherever i go).

And i lucked out. 2 years later, here i am. Now i have a bunch of friends from Spain, all over the US, England, Ireland and Scotland. I love teaching. I play in 2 bands. And i have no children!!!!! Somehow everything worked out and for that i will be forever grateful.

I've been thinking more and more that i would love to be a Papi someday. But it would be really sweet to be in love with the woman who was having our child! Something to look forward to. But for now, it's time to celebrate the little victories.


One never knows, do one?
