Shortly after my twenty-first birthday, I was "adopted" by a divorced woman, who, seeing how I had just went through a devastating life-change, and had no family to back me up, took pity on me in that "I'm gonna change this degenerate young man and have a free babysitter" kind of way. For about two months, I lived with this woman in Mooseup, CT, free from the constraints of having to work, and with the only conditions being that I would have sex with "said" woman, and look after the kids while she was busting her ass at a warehouse. It was a fabulous "stay at home dad"-like life while it lasted..........until her ex-husband, who knew me quite well (too well), intervened with a threat to get DCF involved (I guess that what "child custody" people are called in CT) because of my "nefarious", booze fueled, irresponsible past. Changing a two year old's pull-up's can be a daunting task, but you've got to look at the big picture. Life without having to clock in to a dreary, soul-less job every day is a life preferable to that the majority of Americans are forced to lead. Those two months were the most comfortable period of my life, ever since I've been living in the Northeast (close to five years).
