I really don’t know why I was panicking about the letter X. I have a Cao for a friend who, when I mentioned in the comments of an earlier post I was worried about X, she replied that every girl should have a pair of X-Ray Spex. And sure enough when I logged on today, I had a pair – a gift from Cao 🙂
I actually cried when I found them. You see, today is not just Letter X Day, it is ANZAC Day here in Australia. Cao and I can trace the true beginning of our friendship to one year ago today. It all started with this post. I have told the story before of how I had mentioned the previous day that I had a special post planned and Cao, like a kid on Christmas Eve was very excited about it. I worried that she would be upset since I knew that she had lost someone close to her at war. I was appalled by my own glibness and warned her in my reply to her comments that it was actually a somber post.
Barely a day has gone by since that she and I haven’t traded blog comments, the occasional email or banter on Facebook. Unbelievably, we have never met in Second Life – a travesty we must rectify soon. Though we live on opposite sides of the world and time zones are cruel, we will find a way. I have no doubt. And that’s not all…
X also marks the spot that Cao holds in my heart ♥
