reel fish a-fryin'

Okay, so I finally got the music post out of the way. It wasn't really an update, I've just wanted to write that since about five months ago. Now that it's done I can rest soundly (pwow!) and introduce the present and recent haps'.

Last week there was a visitor from the states. The Unites States that is. He was around for three days and for me personally it was great to get out and hang around what I call the "Cairns crew" - something I don't do often enough. We are all so busy (or they are... whatever). Regardless, Greg (visitor) was good value and had many interesting tales to tell. Honestly, I think we are carved from the same block, or parallels; brothers from different mothers. It was pretty cool, and at times a little spooky, when we stumbled upon striking similarities in likes, dislikes and sometimes even personality.

One of the craziest was definitely when we were hanging out in the shopping center and went to grab some coffee. I confessed I wasn't really a coffee drinker (though you may remember I have braved a double black thanks to a previous US friend!) but my favourite was white chocolate mocha. 'Lo and behold, it was also his. But, you see, we both preferred tea normally.

If we were girls we'd totally be rocking up to parties in the same outfit. And we'd probably be lesbians. Man, I went there, and I can't go back...

But seriously, it was really a good few days, even if he did miss his flight Thursday evening in a classic way. You know when you're sitting there with others and joking about stuff happening and then it does? Yeah, that happened. Good times... desperate times.

I'll have to make a trip over to the states sometime before I make a trip six feet under (which should be easy, since I will never pass away suckers). I'll steer clear of East St. Louis and Disneyland though.

Speaking of which, I used to note what kind of day I've been having on the Milo scale when I updated daily at about this time. So, for the sake of tradition today, and actually most days now, is a totally cool glass of Milo with ice and the freshest milk.

It's really good right now for one and many reasons. I like this. I like where this is going - and I'm pretty excited about a story I am writing!

Periodi molto buoni.

- P ΞΆ.

two souls alone together in nowhere
are more in company than
two million alone amidst each other
so come away with me
