Optimism for the Pessimist

So I've been trying to keep my optimism afloat. And I think I am starting to come around. I've been talking to Scott, Michael and Aaron alot. ALOT. Yesterday was the first time in a long while that I didn't dwell on my problems while going out with Scott. We went on as usual, enjoying ourselves (albeit on a dead tight budget). I'm not in the clear yet, but at least its getting somewhere. My time is limited, and pessimism isn't doing me (or anyone else) any good.
