[Jimmy actually pauses for a moment, thinking about how to answer instead of just barreling on ahead, as he usually tends to do.]
Hah...to tell you the truth, it really takes a whole heck of a lot to bring me down. I'm not really sure why; it's always been that way.
But I also understand if you're worried about me wanting to do this. I know there's people out there who have problems that are probably dealing with stuff I don't know how to deal with...and definitely probably stuff worse than anything I've had to go through before.
[But...he doesn't just want to bow out just yet. It's ultimately "Nathaniel's" decision whether he does this or not, but-]
There's something I'm willing to tell you about, if it'll prove that I can do this. But I also would kindof prefer if...I made it private, just to you. But if not, then I'll wish you and everybody else involved luck and hope this works out either way. Does that seem fair?
