Winter is on its way here in good old Suncheon - cold nights and dropping leaves. I am having mild flare ups of anxiety and loneliness, and my good old friend 'fucked up social perception' where in I don't reach out to anyone or make any plans and then sit around and feel sorry for myself and think everyone dislikes or is disgusted by me. Luckily for me good old crazy town bus and I have played this game often enough that I am pretty good at nipping it in the bud and not getting on. So, having recognized it before it gets started in horrible earnestness I am taking Steps. It may very well be related to the change of the season. Some of it is that our plans to travel over christmas were squashed because I am afraid to fly due to my previous uterus issues and now our plans to import loved ones is squashed because my hospital stay meant we weren't sure we could do it until the prices had gone holiday madness on flights. Still, I think I have organized a small Christmas niceness here that will mean I don't have to go to the local "potluck Christmas dinner at the bar for a stupid high amount of money for the first 50 foreigners to fork it over". There is even a good chance I will get a turkey this year even, and bake it in the oven. I would rather have a goose, but that is just not in the cards at all. So, christmas will be nice anyway. We have an actual sized fake tree now and everything.
All that preambling leads me to... ddo. I have been enjoying it, both for its own sake and for the connecting to other people who I miss! So - I will be on this week my Wednesday and Friday mornings, and could be on other times as well over the weekend if folks are interested in making a ddo date for romping stomping big group fun (folks here are mostly going to an all weekend drunk fest cabin trip. I am not going because I get tired at 930pm now, and get back aches if I don't have my fancy pillows so pretty much anytime is good). My Wed and Fri mornings are your Tues and Thurs nights, because I am in... THE FUTURE.
In closing, I had a dream this morning that was so boring I woke up. I dreamed I was at Joel's house and we were all playing a game with x-men action figures. We had to battle them in such a way that parts fell off, but we weren't allowed to touch each others toys, or touch the toys together, so everyone just sat against the wall and stared into space, waiting for someone to figure out how to play. That's right, my brain bored itself awake. I think that means that I am officially dumb as a post.
