Social Monster

In the past, I have been a very anti-social person. Not because I didn't want to have people around me, but because I didn't have many close friends who lived within a reasonable distance, so I just tended to be by myself a lot. It got old, but I was used to it. Lately, however, I have had the chance to be more social by making friends who actually live in the same county as I do, and it's ruined me.

Take this week, for example. I have had a total of 10 days off (well, tomorrow is the tenth). Out of the last nine days, I've spent part of one with Sarah, two with my sister, and two with Jamie. That has only left me alone on four of those days, and I at least chatted online or spoke on the phone to someone each of those days. Except today.

Today I have been at my house all day. I got up super late (for me - 9:40, my personal best for this vacation), and since then I've been completely without human contact. No phone calls, no IMs, no visits here or elsewhere. In fact, I haven't even left the house except to let the dogs out. And it's killing me! I have to get together with someone tomorrow, or I think I'll go insane. Sarah, Jamie, Sally and Donna, you've created a social monster! And she needs attention. I may have to name this social monster, if she's going to stick around. Jamie called me skater chick in an IM yesterday. Maybe we can call her that; SC for short. What do you think?

Ahem. Okay, sorry about that little break from reality. I'll go back to my Sims now. And wait for my phone to ring or my IM to bleep. :)
