Perception is reality or Optimism wins

Leaving my countryside outpost to go to the more buzzling and snazzy capital of my beautiful long motherplanet. The week has been wonderful here, very relaxing and I have managed to not think too much of "absent friends" i.e. lost Kangaroos. Actually true, I know you´re disbeliefing, but I have done pretty well! Well done Spinster, pad your back, you´ve managed to realize that you´re not the centre of the universe, and the fact that his grand-father has just died and he had to chase down to Melbourne in a flash, could play a part of this. Ok.

Also, I am the world´s most convinced optimist. Had a "dating-update" with mum and the nephew overheard parts of it. When we were done he looked at me with big eyes asking "are all guys in love with you?". But of course.

Would also like to highlight the fact that I have had TWO missed calls from "private number" today and yesterday. The bloody phone is always in the wrong room and as much as my nearly 6-foot body galopps through the house, I never manage to get there on time. So, mum and I have concluded; friends or work or interior decorators would leave a message. Hence, it must be Mr Kangaroo trying to connect from down under. No other possible explanations!

Optimists, unite and take over.
