Solo Time

Why is it....that whenever I plan to have a "do nothing day" that that's the day when everyone suddenly wants to do things? 

I've been looking forward to having a day off for the past week or so.

Because last week I over extended myself a bit in the socializing.

And I've been working to get my social battery recharged.

The best way to do that is to have time by myself. 

Relaxing after work helps a bit. 

But really a day away from any social interaction is best.

Which is why I'm looking forward to a day off. 

A day away from work.

Away from people.

Able to just relax at home and get the things done here that I haven't had the energy to do before because work has exhausted me. 

In any case.

It's weird.

That on the days where I actively have plans to 'do nothing' but be home.

That's when everyone wants to do something. 

Like it's not even that I've told anyone about my plans.

It's just something I keep quiet. 

Yet....

Suddenly, after basic radio silence. 

I become popular.

Suddenly people are wanting to know if I want to do something with them.

When in reality I really just want to be by myself.

*exhales* 

Sometimes I wonder if it's a sign that I should be trying to be more social.

Other times...I just can't manage the energy to do so. 

This is one of those times. 

I need the me time. 

The alone time.

To recenter myself. 

So sorry people. It will have to be a different day that we hangout. 

Until you next read these words;

I'll be watching the leaves.

Enjoy the day!
