• The friends I have are some of the best people in the world
• Unexpected things happen when you take your power back
• Even more unexpected things happen when you say ‘yes!’ to people, to events, to life
• A long distance call can save a Sunday
• I love women.  It’s a pity men make my bones melt
• Men are mostly stupid (throw rocks at them)
• Even if you’ve known someone for years and years you can still miss each other when it comes to explaining matters of the heart
• It’s never really about the sex
• And it’s never fun not getting what you really, really want
• Forthright.  Honest.  Authentic.  Tell someone you love them (and put aside your expectations)
• Magic sometimes happens at rock bottom

It wasn’t the best weekend I’ve ever had; but it was jam-packed with emotion, conclusions, disappointment and some truth-telling.
