Thoughts for the Week (last week, that is)

I'm late with this this week, but hey, I'm trying:

1. First impressions aren't always right on. Most things/people/places deserve a second chance. And in some cases, three and four and five chances. But ok - six chances at the very most, because let's face it: at that point, it's just a losing battle.
2. The best friends are the kind who you can go years without seeing, and when you do, it's like you only just saw them yesterday and you pick up right where you left off.
3. The best friends are also the kind who you don't really have to explain yourself to because they already know.
4. There is no such thing as being "too professional" for an interview. And if anyone ever tells you this, spit in their eye. Or at least fantasize about spitting in their eye. Because they're stupid.
5. It's a good sign when you go away from home for a few days and you're just as excited to get home as you were to leave.
6. There is no such thing as a "chance meeting." Strangers drift in and out of the picture for a reason, whether it be guidance or direction, or as a type of awakening. Sometimes we need our thoughts or feelings confirmed - and it's nice to run into someone who seems to just get it.
7. There IS such a thing as too much peanut butter jelly time.
