"We stand in the front yard, looking at our marriage like it's a kangaroo we just hit on the highway. Is it dead? I don't know. Kick it."

If you'd asked Simon yesterday how he'd rate his life, he'd say better than perfect. He loves his wife and son, he enjoys his job, he lives in a great house and he's got good friends.

But that was before the worst day of his life.

Today he woke up on a stranger's couch, hungover, having discovered his wife is not in love with him, his job has disappeared and one of his friends has betrayed him in the worst possible way.

If his car hadn't exploded, he'd drive it into a wall.

But you know what they say, what doesn't kill you...
