Why Oatmeal Single 2 - Busy

Too busy to make time for dating, always out and about doing things all my life most of the time, I've said many times for decades I'm busy
But don't you wanna marry a woman, remember drawing pictures of your wedding with Tiffany Cumbo, having children, you turn ten years old in 1995, you probably drew that around that year or who knows which year, but to reference the 2007 piano song you wrote, what happened to the day when everything was so much better?
Yeah, I've wanted to marry possibly since 1993 when I turned eight but I've also wanted wanted to go to space with NASA and be an astronaut that same year, well so many things can be traced back to that year, wanted to impact culture since then, wanted to get into Hollywood, become the next Michael Jackson in the music industry, eventually thought about becoming like Michael Jordan in the NBA playing basketball, was thinking of designing video games and websites in the early 2000s, started making videos in 1996, considered going into comedy
Ra Ra is in the video
Red Dog asked why not go get what you want
I may consider making time for dating in 2024, this current year, or in future years, but this video is more about what happened in the past regardless of whether it was good, bad, right, wrong, like regardless of how poor or excellent the choices I made in my life were, regardless of what my priorities were or lack therein, the point is to outline events, intentions, perspective, choices, feelings, beliefs, thinking, actions, mostly from my subjectively flawed point of view
Oatmeal, you talk about dating someday but why not right now?
I'm not dating right now because I'm trying to finish some of my top projects in life before 2025 or 2030, I've talked about some of this off and on for years in videos, articles, on social media, and everywhere, I'm not saying I can totally finish up everything, the keyword there is some, this is my desire regardless of whether or not I'm right or wrong about this plan
My main focus is to backup and syndicate my autobiography work both online and offline on hard drives, storage devices, websites, clouds, to mirror, duplicate, publish, broadcast, post, release, premiere, copy, collect, save, redistribute, to share with the world in as many places as possibly the original versions of my content, the story of my life, projects, videos, photos, files, documents, text, data, information, as in to archive a time capsule, to consolidate an official George Lucas master copy, to Bit Torrent the Hell out of this Arnold Attic canon before like moving on to trying to marry, have children, settle down, all of that feels like a black hole among other things
This video was not supposed to be about the stuff I'm working on, except to say I felt like I always ended back here in the Arnold Attic no matter where I went during the course of my life, I'm talking mostly emotionally right now as not to say whether it's right or wrong, I'm simply stating how I felt like I sometimes was procrastinating away from getting my projects done as I ran around to different states and countries these past two decades of my life, but of course I'm oversimplifying nuance, details, opportunities, the paradox of hindsight, the feelings of regret of not doing and failure
I could spend hundreds of hours boring you with what I'm doing right now, you could say I'm wrong, crazy, too inaccurate, too incapable of ever finishing up some of my projects, but I'm not delusional enough to say I can totally finish up all of the previous work I've started, let's not even talk about all the things I've yet to do that's on my bucket list for the future as I always get in the habit for decades to always take on more work which is part of the reason I'm in this current situation in the first place today
I also don't want to bore you with all of the other reasons I might be single like I feel scared my future wife might end up believing the Oatmeal Fake News which are lies trolls spam about me for decades online, and I feel scared I might not be able to make enough money to provide for a family, I've felt I might not be good enough for a woman, or she might not be good enough for me, or that many who I wanted to marry married other people or didn't like me or sometimes some girls liked me but maybe I was too blind to see it at the time, and the list goes on and on
Never mind my current life
During the course of my life I would often be too busy as a workaholic clean freak perfectionist, a nerd athlete, an extroverted introvert, many people have the opposite problems I had, I've been self-motivated to do things since 1993, I'm always out trying to get things done, I've always been rough around the edges among other things, I probably have many things wrong with me as seen in the What's Wrong With Oatmeal video series
Perhaps I ruined many opportunities with potential girlfriends because I was busy or over-thought it or tried too hard with seven-page-long love letters I would hand my alleged victims which I might be joking that they were victims per se, so we don't have time to talk about all of this right now
