You’re now not only my buddy, you’re my only buddy. Do you have a minute? There are some things that have been weighing on my mind about my marriage, my kids, my health, and life in general, and I really need someone to talk to. I’ve only had a couple of drinks, really. Say, mind if I call you? I know it’s late, but you’re my _buddy,_ right? ---

Does this mean you’ll baby sit China Bambina for days at a time? She’s only 20 months, so you’re ahead of that curve. Her favorite book is Hop on Pop, so I’m sure you two deconstructionists will get along just fine [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/an-important-request/97693.md?page=3)
