'there's nowt so queer as folk'.

when it comes to other people, i never can tell quite what to expect. more often than not, the surprises that i've come to expect from friends, companions and loved ones, no matter how well i think i know them, are awkward ones. maybe that's why i tend to be a little cagey about relying on anyone. sometimes, though people can be as generous or considerate as at other times, they are just plain daft.

most times though, i find myself being pleasantly surprised. my faith in human nature is on its way to partial restoration.
