Now that you're done you're not not really actually you've not even started Oh sure you're done with the free part of your schooling and with childhood but take it from me, you can make childhood a skill to build a career on but life as a big person and I don't mean fat is just starting like in the movie Silverado when Scott Glenn opens the door to his shack on a mountain and sees the world before him except you don't have to have a gunfight to get out like he did but that was just a movie and we are talking about your life still that is a favorite movie of mine So yes your life is just beginning and as much as it will hurt me when you go away and live it I knew this day would come that you would go that our lives would forever be different and mostly separate I'm taking for granted that you'll be home for Thanksgiving and Christmas just stay in touch throw in an awful joke about the civil war and giraffes once in awhile for good measure and after the "that was an awful joke" comments have faded think of me and smile Oh and don't forget to call your mom once in awhile or I''l hear about it.

Now That You're Done, You're Not
Now that you're done you're not not really actually you've not even started Oh sure you're done with the free part of your schooling and with childhood but take it from me, you can make childhood a skill to build a career on but life as a big person and I don't mean fat is just starting like in the movie Silverado when Scott Glenn opens the door to his shack on a mountain and sees the world before him except you don't have to have a gunfight to get out like he did but that was just a movie and we are talking about your life still that is a favorite movie of mine So yes your life is just beginning and as much as it will hurt me when you go away and live it I knew this day would come that you would go that our lives would forever be different and mostly separate I'm taking for granted that you'll be home for Thanksgiving and Christmas just stay in touch throw in an awful joke about the civil war and giraffes once in awhile for good measure and after the "that was an awful joke" comments have faded think of me and smile Oh and don't forget to call your mom once in awhile or I''l hear about it.
