typically random ramblings and late night dribble.

fortuna’s wheel
funny how it spins upwards for some, downwards for others. seems like quite a few of my friends are having their fair share of difficulties at the moment, meanwhile i’ve managed to alleviate some of my recent stress.
last week i finally found myself somewhere to live. it’s a bit further away from the city than i am currently, which is a shame, but it’s bigger than where i am now, the area is really nice and quiet and my new landlord is terriffic. nothing much else has changed in my life, but it’s amazing how much easier everything else seems without the spectre of homelessness (word?) hovering over my head.
so now that i’ve sorted that, i find myself in the familiar position of taking on other people’s stress. in this case though i’m quite happy to do it, and only wish i could do more. the major protagonist i won’t name, but suffice to say it’s someone i love dearly and who’s been in a pretty bad way in recent weeks. she’s too far away for me to really help (that’s probably given it away for a few of you) and that hurts.
i haven’t heard from her in the last couple of days because she’s without internet access, but i’m hoping also no news is good news. otherwise, i think she’d have got in contact with me somehow. i certainly hope she would have.
in any case, positive vibes is the best i can do for the moment, and i’m sending them by the bucket load.
