<strong>love</strong>, <strong>rosie</strong> 329define myself right now anyway. Plus the “I Love Mother” tattoo on his armwould be a real turn-off. That quote by James Joyce really upsets me too,because Rupert is so tall that when I look straight ahead I’m faced with hischest and I constantly read this “Mistakes are the portals of discovery.” It’slike a sign or something, like Rupert was put in the flat beside me to makeme understand. Only I wish the message made more sense than that. Mistakesare more like the potholes of discovery. It’s a bloody long bumpy roadto discovery and you’re more likely to die in a car crash than a plane accident.I wish it said “Chocolate is good” instead.Speaking of mistakes, I still haven’t spoken to Alex and it’s been over ayear. All we’ve been doing is sending stupid cards back and forth to eachother. It’s like we’re having a staring competition and neither of us wants to bethe first one to blink.

He was whistling by thetime he got to my door. Things like that would have really made Alex laugh,especially as I had told him all about the stupid dog keeping me awake allnight barking and always stealing my post from the poor postman.Despite my loneliness for him I know this phase isn’t going to last forever.He’ll come around sooner or later. I just hope I won’t be six feet underby the time he does. Katie is trying to sneak a peak off my page . . .MASLOW’S THEORY OF HIERARCHYHa ha, that’ll put her off the scent. OK I better go now and actually dosome work. See you both soon. Tell Dad I said hello and that I <strong>love</strong> him.Oh by the way Ruby has set me up on a blind date on Saturday night. I
