So I suppose I have responsibilities here.

I suppose the whole point of this is just to tell bits of my story and maybe somewhere in there, someone will find something worth thinking about. The only thing I would really like to convince people of is that they should think a little more. At some point I might want to write an explanation of why a Rolex isn't a dress watch or how my cat kept me from going crazy. So the point might be just to argue that some things are worth taking a second look at from a different perspective.
