Glue and gum and staples.

Today's am.fm.pm mixtape was assembled by Ronaldo, the surly office handyman. D/L at your lesiure, but he doesn't special order graphing calculators. You're gonna need departmental budget approval for that, mister.

You have no idea what I go through here at the office, man. You think you know me? You think you've got me figured out? Never. Fuckin' never, dude. I'm just the handyman, right? "I'm a fixer." I'm supposed to fix things. Well man, I've got news for you: Some things can't be fixed. Sometimes things just get too broken, like the armrest of that chair at the far end of the conference room, or a credit rating, or a heart.

My kids laugh at me at the dinner table and I don't know why. Can't fix that.

You've got no idea what I go through at home, man. My kids. My kids, the son that wears black lipstick, and my daughter that listens to colored people music. How is a man supposed to fix that? Barsha hasn't touched me in months, and as we lay in bed at night, me watching Cheers reruns and her reading one of those Goddamn fitness books that she never uses, only reads, I look up at the water damaged ceiling and plan that weekend's projects. First the the hardware store. Then the grocery store. My reward will be the liquor store.

It's important for a man to have a project. It's important to try to fix things, even when deep down inside you know that some things you just can't fix. Like a dog race.

There's no such thing as duct tape for a dream. You've got no idea what I go through.
