    Stand up for yourself, walk away, if you're doing all the work it ain't working.

    This is something I still have to tell myself on a regular basis.

    Hard to boil down to a single sentence, but I'd want to convey to my younger self that there are not just two types of relationships being either passionate yet horribly dysfunctional or boring with no attraction. There really IS a good middle ground that you can find and actually enjoy life & be happy and romantically fulfilled!

    It would have saved me from years in Marriage #1 (which fortunately was boring with no attraction and not the other type).

    Root for a different football team, my boy. The Buffalo Bills are the leading cause of atherosclerosis in men.

    Tell Mom you want to sign up for a Self Realization Fellowship Camp. It may very well save the Christmas of '97.

    You want to know why I like what I like? I’m not sure how to answer that.
