Tears of Lys Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I covet my time alone. Gardening, cooking, reading, hiking, listening to and playing music, bird watching. I'm around people all day at least 5 days a week. I'm active in my church, and do things with friends, but I require a good bit of alone time in order to recharge my batteries. Yes, but how are the BEES?? :P Every time I see a big, ol' fat bumble-dee-bee slow-flying around my wisteria blossoms, I think of you! I spend most of my "free" time feeling guilty about the work I should be doing. Retirement is beckoning and beguiling me so much so that I've kinda shut down about a year too soon. All I want to do is play with my husband and my dog Benny, take him for loooong walks through the woods, play with my garden, take care of some projects I've been dying to start, hem and take in a bunch of pants too good to discard, and on and on and on. I'd like to get back into cooking like I used to do too. But all the while I'm procrastinating on work I'm supposed to do. Sigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry of the Lawn Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 You'll have to ask my cellmate QUIET IN THERE!!! Don't make me get the hose! But seriously, hiking with the dog reading and drinking lots of coffee listening to music going for a long drive / exploring kayaking, fishing i like going to the movies alone reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Seswatha Jordan Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 i like going to the movies aloneHave you ever spent the whole day going from movie to movie, yet only paying the first time? A friend and I used to do that my first year in college. Good times, felt like a rebel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HexMachina Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Going to the cinema alone is the only way to do things for me. I'm not going to be talking during the film, so it isn't exactly sociable. And if anyone tries to talk to me I'll pull my angry stage whisper on them. No arguments over what to go see..Plus, if no-one goes with me they don't see my disheveled slouching in the seat as I get comfortable. Also, nobody to share the popcorn with. Win win situation.

Quorra Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I almost never go see movies because I'm too easily annoyed by other movie-goers talking or using their phones, or putting their nasty bare feet up on the seats. I think I sat directly behind Shrek when I went to see Star Trek Into Darkness. He was eNORmous and he stretch all the eff out all over that place. He had his arm around an entire family and it wasn't until the end of the movie when I realized he didn't even come there with them. When I saw Interstellar, I sat in front of this old lady who had to react to every other thing on screen with "ahhh" and "ohh geeze", and "mmmhmmmm" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoë Sumra Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 But when one goes alone to the cinema one has no hand to hold in the scary bits. :(I, like ES, covet time alone. I get VERY grumpy if I don't get a good chunk of it. Reading, gaming, writing, watching TV (I don't watch much TV but prefer to do so when no one else can object to the programme), playing piano: if I have free time after all that, which is almost never, poking at the garden. I miss alone time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Lannister Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I go to movies just to eat the sweet buttered popcorn.....could care less what is playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkess Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Internet, so much internet. Besides that, I read, write, workout, tend to my apartment, bake, and put together jigsaw puzzles. I spend almost all of my non-work time alone (or with my bf), so I can vouch that these activities can easily fill a lot of time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
