A year ago...

[luckykaa]

Been looking at old entries.  A year ago I was on something of a high.  Lots of nice things had happened.  4 groups of friends had just got married.  Managed to enjoy lots of LARP stuff.  Hooked up with an absolutelt fantastic girl.  Sadly nothing came of that last one, and it seems I got rather stressed.

Two years ago I was totally buzzed.  Had just returned from a party in Sheffield, met loads of the geeks.  Things only got better since I decided to pop in to visit wolfie_sara  on the way home.  And a short but enjoyable relationship with lots of travelling followed.  Shortly after, work got really stressful.

Checking back that's not actually a regular pattern. Shame.  I was hoping to meet someone.  OTOH, I could do without suffering from severe stress shortly afterwards.  Hopefully I'm going to be stress free. 

Actually my social life is pretty much non-existent during the week.  I will chat a little to my landlady and occasionally other lodgers but this place doesn't really lend itself to that.  As an introvert this isn't a huge problem for me but I used to have such a busy social life.  I do prefer to do something than sit around on the internet or watching telly.  It's all a bit lonely really.

Part of the problem is that since I'm only going to be here for another 9 weeks I don't have a huge incentive to start anything.  Another problem is that it's not that easy to find something I want to do.  I could do with finding a board gaming group.  Roleplay would be fun but I prefer to know the people I'm playing with or at least have some idea of how they play.  I do feel I should try something completely different.

This collection of random disorganised thoughts was brought to you by luckykaa .

I'm simply not able to come up with any actual directed theme for LJ entries recently.  Anyone have anything they want to ask me? 

Is anyone still around even or am I talking to myself?

Nope, we're still around. Hope you do find something to do, I know how unpleasant isolation can be even when there's a definite end in sight.

Thanks.

Incidentally, any interest in me stopping by for a cuppa on the way to Cheltenham sometime? Not that I'm totally sure I'd recognise you having met you about twice, and one of those time you were a ferret.

While it would be nice, unfortunately my living situation is a bit complicated at the moment - I'm in Trowbridge from late Friday night until first thing Monday morning, and the rest of the time I'm in Chelmsford or on trains...which is pretty much why I sympathise with the situation, because I'm also living in it :)

I'm here! I'm just not a very chatty person. Online or offline.

I'm still around :)

Oh, I'm around, just ignoring you :P

Seriously though, it was nice to see you at the weekend, and we should keep in better touch.

Nobody ever gets rid of me.

Unless they suck.

Which you don't.

So there.

Beer, soon?

I will try and make it to the London pubmeet next weekend if you ever go along to them.

Hello! It sounds aggravating. Hugs.

I'm still around :) *wave*
I have moved house and only have internet at work, so I only get to use it in breaks / sneaky empty office moments.

Having had several months living where I didn't have anything particularly social to do, and I would advise finding something just to have different people to chat to. An exercise class, maybe?
I couldn't even find that, and it had been just after my breakup, so I basically mainlined World of Warcraft for 3 months to keep myself sane!

Am around but exhausted! *snoozes*

Apathbot v0.1: you are talking to yourself.

[luckykaa.livejournal.com]

I am amused by the idea that you made a robot to be apathetic for you.

[masterofapath.livejournal.com]

Apathbot v0.1 (about): Thank you for your enquiry (although I really don't know why you'd bother). Due to overwhelming apathy the project was outsourced to the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation 'Genuine People Personalities' department in late 2009. That's all there is to know really - miserable isn't it.

I'm here, just busy and stressed with work and property purchase.
