It has been 16 maybe 17 years since I have lived alone. Even then it wasn’t that long of a period of time. Maybe I will adjust, I am sure that I will, humans are by their very nature adaptive. Still I miss having people around. Most of all I miss my two children. I have not spoken to them in a couple of days. Not that I haven’t tried. Now I share a house with a cat that wants nothing to do with me and a beta fish. I need to get a dog. Everything seems so quiet. I feel a little like Tom Hanks’s character in the movie where he is a cast away and befriending a volleyball. It would be different if I lived in an apartment where there were people around but here I have no one to visit with.
I made dinner and ate alone. I worked on my dissertation till I couldn’t stand it and stopped. I should go to bed, and go in to work early. I listened to the RNC and felt ill. Politics has become a circus for the media to cover. Do any of them really care what is going on in the lives of most Americans?
