So here`s a funny story.There`s this grocery store that I frequent which sells my favorite cookies made by a company called Dancing Deer.I`ve been going to that store for several years and I know most of the regulars and the staff.
Anyway,two days ago I made my usual run to pick up my cookies and I met someone.It was a totally strange encounter,just happened out of the blue.So I`m standing there with my cookies and talking to one of the workers there(I`ve known him for a while) when suddenly this young lady literally trips into me.It was incredibly weird and funny.So we both apologize and then she asks me about the cookies(yes,this will sound weird).So we end up talking about cookies until both of us pass through the line and leave the store.
Turns out she had parked her car right next to mine,so we make it to our respective cars and I just blurt out,``Can I get your number?``.I think I turned beet red,but she just hands me her number and says,``Call me on Thursday``.
I never had an experience like that,because I tend to plan everything out beforehand,but that was really weird.
So I`m back to VR.I come back after dealing with a lot of stuff.
I got a new job,better paying one,but also I came back with a changed attitude.Not going to go into details,but one of my best friends from childhood(not anyone on VR,I promise),admitted that she loved me.Big shocker,as I know her current boyfriend and we`re good friends too.I never thought of her as a lover,but she obviously did.But my heart is long since chilled over and I can`t even care about myself emotionally,let alone another.So yeah
I have a good life,but everyone tells me that I seem depressed.
One of my coworkers asked me what I do on my time off and I just said,``nothing``.Having tried so much in life,I`ve become desensitized to almost everything,an irony.
Cooking isn`t fun anymore,it has turned into something of a chore.I live by a really nice pizza place,which makes the best wings and pizza in my city,so takeout dinners have become a thing.
Poetry and literature have also lost their appeal,though I hauled my entire library across the ocean with me.
Movies aren`t any fun.I did stop drinking alcohol almost completely.After several weeks of constant parties,I became so disgusted with myself that I went home and threw out almost 300 dollars worth of wine,followed by more rum.Having touched a drop since.
Visits to the mountains,which used to be my favorite past-time have become tedious,seeing as how I can`t stand all the tourists.Nowadays I`m becoming more of a literary recluse.
I still work mostly from home,so I`m more solitary than ever.However I`ve gotten back into my old hobby from high school,video games.Particularly difficult RPGs such as Dark Souls,Dragon Age and The Witcher tend to stand highest on the list for me.Strange that after all that I`ve seen and done,I`d turn to video games,but they really do help.
As for social media,I`ve taken down almost every connection and even wanted to delete this profile,but then I thought that it may come in handy at some point and what do you know,I`m back here again.
Anyway if you remember me and want to get back in touch,please do so.I like to meet interesting people,so if you find whatever you find appealing,message me and let`s chat.
Till then
Auf Wiedersehen
