Best Man

So I know I know how can you be the best man when your the Imperfect Single DAD.  Well ask my friend Steve Jobs.  Ok I know Steve Jobs is dead but I consider my buddy my Steve Jobs.  Steve and I have worked with each other for the last 6-7 years.  I am not sure how I put up with him and how he has put up with me.  Anyways I wonder who is the better slacker.  Even though I could ring his neck at times he has been my best advisor and has seen me through my divorce.  He gave me advice when I asked and never gave me advice when I did not ask.  I really appreciate this because I know he cared but let me live without judgements.  I remember one day he showed up to work with a smile.  If you knew Steve Jobs like I did then you would be like why is he smiling.  He normally never shows emotion.  So needless to say I was intrigued.  Did he win the lotto?  Did he beat a game he has been playing for weeks or years?  Well the answer was yes!  He found the girl of his dreams.  I was so happy he found a girlfriend.  I watched him grow into this relationship while my marriage went down the drains.  I never told him that marriage was terrible on the contrary I told him that he was headed in the right direction.  Anyways he decided to get married.  To my surprise he asked if I could be his best man.  This baffled me.  I had lost my marriage what could I possibly offer him as advice.  I would like to think that I may have given him hope that marriage is wonderful even if I had failed at it.  I hope he has a fruitful marriage and life treats him as he deserves to be treated.  I was his best man at their beautiful ceremony.  My Angel was my date and she was so amazed at being at the wedding.  She said I want to get married!  She better learn to live with the Best Man first!  lol
