Relationships are easy — the short-term ones. Many of us, after some trial and error, can master the science of the sprint. Over the span of a couple of hours, days, maybe a week, sometimes even a month or two, we can have the newest staring into our eyes saying "Where did you come from?" She will continue with, "How did I ever get so lucky? Why did anyone ever let you go?" I don’t know but I got a list twenty deep — you could call and ask them. Well, on second thought — don’t bother.

Examining my history, I realize I have made about every mistake known to man — at least twice and then copyrighted a few of my own.
