my wonderful friends

there was a lot of stuff i was very happy to leave behind in central queensland--42 degree Christmases, paediatrician offices located up 14 stairs with no ramp, the ubiquitous cane toads and, of course, some of the maniacs in charge of the uni there--but although i've been luckyy enough to meet some lovely people in victoria and to even have a couple of people who don't throw themselves into the shrubbery to avoid me as i pass by, i still Really Really Really miss the great friends that i made there. but there is a lot of comfort to be had in knowing that they are all still out there making the world a nicer place. And they give me something to aspire to. Because one day, seriously, I WILL be as organised as Anne, as colour coordinated as Lindy, as good a cook as Christine and as totally awesom as the lovely Barbara manages to be when she's angry. and yes you are all much more multi-dimensional than this suggests but if i tried to be everything i'd be even less than i am now!
