roadnotes rambling and shy

needing to stretch out

So, today's socializing plans (hanging out with Victor) have been shifted, as both Victor and Soren are somewhat under the weather, in "we would prefer to be non-ambulatory" states. I shall review job listings, then go out into the bright sunlight, and walk around the neighborhood a bit, drop some books off at the library, maybe take a bus ride somewhere.

I am withdrawing in an odd sort of way, and need to think about how to get out of it. Karaoke, yes, but that's, for the most part, light acquaintances, social community friendships. I've made contact with a few people from LJ out here, but not followed up on initial overtures, and I suspect that I need to make the effort.

One part, of course, is that home is easy and comfortable. I have a mixture of time to myself, social time with Soren and Jane, household maintenance both alone and together, and Adoration of the Cat -- and it's sometimes too easy to stay with that. I have the membership at the CSPC, but I've not been going to social activities there, because I've been wavering about my intentions and motivations (those are for a separate post, I think).

Dither.

There is a production of The Who's Tommy playing the next three weekends, down in Burien. I think I shall go to a Sunday matinee, and then perhaps pop into CC's Lounge for the piano bar/dancing afterwards. My pumps are repaired, as are my brown granny boots, so I feel ready to go out.
