Do I write more often and risk diluting the final product or just say fuck it?

I'm going with fuck it.

            I feel like I'm at a weird point in my life, I've never really been bothered by the way my life has turned out. In that regard I mean the fact that I am in my early to mid 30's and am still single and childless. Sure I've had chances and for whatever reasons at the time I sabotaged them. I like to think that when I'm given the chance again I will be in a better place personality wise and will be able to resist those urges,(on the off chance that someone reading this is a potential suitor, I make no promises). To the ones from my past who are reading this to whom this may apply, yes I sabotaged it, it's where I was and who I was at the time, I am truly sorry if any of my actions had a negative effect on your life, but back to the original point.    
I feel like I am in a part of a weird generation. Obviously we are raised by our parents who were raised by their parents. So as a man ( I think you should know I typed kid there and then changed it to man, as a 33 year old I feel that is a proper moniker, but I really don't like it)  born in the late 70's-early 80's I was raised by parents who learned from people born in the first half of the last century. It's just so far removed by the time it gets to the new generation. Like for instance there are people my age who have grandparents who were alive during the dust bowl. Those things are so far removed from where we are now it's almost unbelievable that those type of things ever even happen. I'm not sure what the point to this is I guess I'm just considering where I am in life, which makes me think of where my parents, and so on and so on and so on.
I guess I'm just trying to come up with a logical explanation for my terrifying arrested development/Peter Pan complex. But as it is now 1 a.m. here in Philadelphia and I can hear what sounds like no less than 25 people outside of window starting to make a commotion I realize it could be far worse. Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go watch this mayhem.
( quick note I just glanced at this and noticed how many times I used the word "I". Sorry about that)
