Cabin Fever
[Private]
I had lunch with padma the other day and I think it's broken the dam in me. Ever since I haven't been able to stay at home unless I'm either cooking or studying. I'm used to reading for fun but lately I can't keep my mind on it. It's that playfullness of hers, I've missed it these last few years and seeing her again has finally made me realise just how much. I'm tired of being cooped up and allowing it to happen to myself. Every night this week I've gone fishing or walking, I even went out to the bar around the corner just for a little atmosphere, but I'm no good at being the life of the party, especially with people I don't know.
I want to get out more, I'm gonna need more money for that. For the moment it looks like Calculus is actually going to keep teaching me at the rate he has been since our argument. Even if it doesn't last I'm still learning enough to help me move ahead faster than before. Hopefully this will mean I can take more of a role in the shop and I can make a bit more money for myself.

Okay! I'm desperate to get out of this hole for a night or two, and soon. Where are we going and when? Thanks to you Padma I've finally come to realise how little there is to do around here, and the Wanderers don't play a home game for another month. You need to get me out of here, I can only have so many hobbies before I run out of things to do. I've got more interests than I have time, so after packing in about six ideas I've come to the conclusion that some of my spare time is better spent having fun. Save me!
