Beautifully 'perfect'...

A night and half a day to myself in a very nice hotel room followed by a fantastic evening with a very good dinner and watching the movie '300'...

A big, filling breakfast followed by hiking and rock climbing in the mountains of Arkansas, a great view at the top of the mountain, climbing back down and racing against time/darkness, coffee at Starbucks, driving around, 'the departed'...

And, not to mention, very, very, very good company, amazing sleep in a really nice, warm hotel bed, two free nights of accomodation, good conversation, lots of laughs, lots of memorable moments, and overall, the absolute most amazing weekend since I came here in January...

Beautiful...

Then reality hit, and brutally so...

Except...

Everything I just said was a reality too...and that realisation is so damn satisfying...
