Needed a day by myself and it was a spectacular day. Yes I gave up the opportunity for an outting to listen to some music with some friends, or something of "date", and then of course there is always the opportunity to hang out with people who have been getting on nerves for months but I can't bring myself to tell them because it's not the sort of things you say to people.
So the time alone to regenerate was a very good thing - I just need a few more days of this and I should be ready to actually be nice to people again for a while. Crazy thing is, very few people in my life actually understand that without the alone time, I can't possibly tolerate so much time around people. What does JB call me, a vampire. She is right on so many levels. Funny how someone who has known me for just a few years knows me so much better than a friend I have had here in MN since the day I moved here.
When I told that particular person yesterday, I want to be alone, she said, "I think you are depressed, maybe you can get some drugs for that" - so, luckily, vampire that I am, I had just enough reserve blood that I didn't need strike out and drain the soul right the hell out of her.
I'm starting to understand how Tom Cruise's character must have felt in Interview with a Vampire - it's hard to have to hide in your coffin all the time. Every now and again you gotta just bite someone.

Jen Darling... I believe that all of your friends know you well, I just think that some people always feel the need to change people. That's one area I refuse to visit! I figure that you should take time to really get to know someone at the begining of a relationship, if you can accept them for who they are then great! If not, move the eff on! I have a hard time believing that there is anyone out there that you or I know that is "balanced" enough to spend time trying to make us better people or fix us. Give me a break! My suggestion is to make sure that you NEVER let these friends visit after sunset. I don't have the time or money to fly back to MN right now just to help you burn bloodless bodies of your victims!
i'm a big fan of the alone time. as long as i don't become lonely. big difference.
