Here's an article I have a pathological need to share with other people who talk about the joys of being alone.<br />Caring for your Introvert:<br />http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2003/03/caring-for-your-introvert/2696/DMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01234417658580246583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1959179775878119394.post-14449081082583580082011-04-04T22:11:29.768-05:002011-04-04T22:11:29.768-05:00oh... please DO talk about mythology LOLoh... please DO talk about mythology LOLUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17372524761800311388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1959179775878119394.post-1056946227267986672011-03-21T11:00:55.324-05:002011-03-21T11:00:55.324-05:00It's so strange, I was feeling a lot of pressu...It's so strange, I was feeling a lot of pressure from the outside world recently to be more 'fun'. But for me, 'fun' is playing sudoku and listening to an audiobook, painting splodgey paintings and assigning miscellaneous meanings to them and baths. All of these things, I do alone. That to me is fun.<br />And stumbling upon your post makes me feel better because fun is relative both culturally and personally. Everyone's different. Sometimes being a bit of a, dare I say it, introvert might make one feel ostricised? <br />You sound like loads of fun to me anyway.

How I would LOVE a masquerade ball, so long as the red death does not make an appearance :)<br /><br />HOTTA DAMN.<br /><br />Kathleen, I like that word too! Also: consternation, vim, axiom, monolith... I may need to start a list!<br /><br />I think it's quite pleasant to do things alone. I've had way too many people tell me they cannot do this, but need company for various activities and I was thinking of how draining it would be to try and dig up someone to accompany me for all kinds of everyday outings... I wouldn't like it.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08700838274754785164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1959179775878119394.post-58464913528283822632011-02-28T15:02:59.555-06:002011-02-28T15:02:59.555-06:00I always have to look up the word "sidereal&q...I always have to look up the word "sidereal" and have never used it conversation but would like to hear it used!<br /><br />I do lots of stuff alone.
