Aaron I have a girlfriend and I have a hard enough time finding time for work, her, and going to the gym. I can't imagine if I had kids. I don't know where I would find the time.

"Busy" is just a state of one's mind; it has nothing to do with the reality.

Taking drugs and drinking too much alcohol can often make you think that you're "busy." There is really nothing wrong with having a drink or two a day, but having too many drinks can really influence your mental condition.
