I started writing this in Ireland late at night, and scheduled it to send. I wasn’t ready and then I forgot to come back to it. So with my final tweaks these are the inner thoughts on my “why not” theory. I loved writing this and I hope there are some things, as well as practical advice, that is helpful.

About a decade ago Jon and I went to a gig, I can’t even remember which one, but we managed to get a VIP pass. On the pass it read: Why me? Why not! I stuck it up in my bedroom for ages. It felt like a motto for life.
