So what did I learn this week?
Never judge a book by its cover…..ever.
People who seem to be strong and self composed are often the weakest and the most selfish.
Seeing grown men cry is something I cannot deal with….at all…ever....and is the only thing ever guaranteed to make me cry in public.
When necessary, I think that women are emotionally a lot tougher than men.
Fortunately, today's news is tomorrow's fish and chip wrapping.
Don't tease people about their choice in music...it might come back and bite you in the arse later....or it becomes the music that will always remind you of them....
Having a vivid imagination is for the most part a good thing. However, there are times when it is the most awful trait to possess.
During stressful situations, talking about things and just 'venting' is actually the best possible thing anyone can do. Listening to other people talk...is the trade off.
It is possible to survive for 48 hours on 3 chicken wings, 2 gin & tonics and 2 hours sleep. Not pleasant...but possible.
Drinking gallons of strong, hot, milky tea during times of crisis is very therapeutic...the British are right!
It is incredible how long it is possible to stand and stare vacantly into space...anywhere...beside the road, at a taxi that's stopped to pick you up, in a supermarket, at the ATM....
Fact is very definitely stranger than fiction....
It's true....we do get by with a little help from our friends...
A heartfelt thank you to all of you for your comments, mails, calls and chats.... it has really helped this week. A special thank you to Mia for putting up with yards of writing....you have no idea how much that helped.
