For many years I was like the rest of the world rushing my life from weekend to weekend always trying to savor those precious final Sunday night or holiday hours and dreading the sound of the alarm that signaled a new work week.

The apology is mostly in the confession, that he'll never hear, as I don't ever actually say I'm sorry. But if it's the thought that counts then h…

This interview was recorded Christmas Day 2015 in Austin, Texas.
