I hate interruptions.
I was just getting all happy & social and then I got sick. A month and a half later, I got over that bout of the flu just in time to not have to cancel my rescheduled vacation. I am now over the vacation and recovered. and now I'm looking at getting back into being social again and all I can think is "but. .but I just got some energy back." I like people. I like listening to them talk about stuff that is interesting. I like sitting and ignoring them when they are talking about stuff that is less interesting. In these last few years though, it is exhausting. I hate that. It didn't used to be like this. Socializing used to be something that was like coffee for me. I woke up and felt alive when I was in a room full of people. Now. . .now I make myself do this because I like the people I've met and I want to keep in touch. It is simply that doing so feels like climbing a mountain while towing a semi by ropes. It is exhausting.
