is it really true?

Hi ((((all)))).

H has called and - surprise! - an alien again, someone I haven't heard from in a while. Well, not entirely, but at the beginning of the convo he was pretty much his stupid foggy double, then he gradually warmed toward me and called me by pet name, once. We spoke a bit longer, though, mostly him telling me about his day and discussing D's plans.

I asked him whether our Friend has called yesterday and H said yes, and that he (F) is such a gossip (he is, a little bit). So I had a chance to ask: then why did you tell him about OW? H said, I asked him not to talk too much about it (?!). And that was it.

Then H told me that he's going away for a day, his boss invited him to his country house, which means he will call me on Monday.
I said, fine. It really is, given that for nearly 6 months h'd go two weeks in a row without a call or e-mail.

I have 3 explanations for his sudden alien voice:

1. Our F gave him a piece of his mind yesterday.
2. He's going to see OW tonight (probably will stay overnight). I could call him and check, but I'm hurting enough and REALLY don't want to know.
3. OW is going with him to his boss's country house.

In 11 days I will have an alien visitor! YAY! And in less than a month I will board the spaceship !

I think that for the first time (sadly, it was a very short time too:)) I really FELT today that I'm ready to drop the rope. Better later than never, right?
