Hehe... all so true. I have one to add from my own experiences.

If you have a big project, life will throw so much other stuff at you that must be done first, that you will forget said large project until several days before it is due. The bigger and more important the project, and the more money you can earn from it being done well, then the fewer days between when you remember/see it marked on the calendar and when it is due. This is called the Law of the Due Date or Deadline, depending on what area of what country you are in.

My law of reality: If you are excited about something finally happening in life that you have hoped and prayed for forever seems to be coming through but then you open your mouth and finally tell someone about it. Everything falls apart and all the doors close and you wish you had never said anything. Happens to Rick and I all the time.

Yeah, that one too.
