What am I doing?

Inner peace feels like cherries in spring and the leaves in August. It's like scratching an itch. Like finding a perfect puddle of water.

Huh.

I know it sounds weird...

but I'm pretty happy.

Solitude

Sometimes I feel so goddamn alone. Everyone has places to be and people to be with except me. I'm just wandering without a purpose.

A lot of my friends have significant others and that takes up a lot of their time. I can understand that, but it doesn't stop me from being a little jealous. I can't force my friends to hang out with me - Nik and I are gay enough as it is - but the house is almost always empty, and even when Lise is home, she's usually in her room studying, so it's deathly quiet. When Yianni comes over, I do enjoy the company, but again, I can't force them to hang out with me and they're usually occupied (I know you guys read this blog, chill), and anyways, I would feel like a third wheel if I just sat there in the room. There's enough awkwardness in this house as it is, so I don't need to exacerbate the situation.

Kristie is gone, and when she does come back, it's to visit her boyfriend(s). It kind of sucks because I miss her (despite the hate), and again, I get jealous when she has better things to do. I need a certain quota of attention each day and I get finicky when it's not filled. Knowing that other people have better things to do than hang out with me is sort of depressing, because I don't have anything better to do than to look for people to hang out with.

And no, I can't find a significant other because I'm mentally retarded. See previous notes spanning back about 3 years.

So I'm sitting at home alone now, playing sad songs on my guitar and failing miserably. Go me.
