Interaction Diary
Since leaving my sister’s house after dinner at 10.30PM Friday, my interaction diary contains the following entries:
REAL-LIFE
Saturday, 8.30AM – To launderette. Didn’t speak
Saturday, 2.00PM – To B&Q to buy a new heater. Thanked counter staff
Saturday, 4.15PM – To cinema alone. Spoke to other customers to confirm the ticket machine in the carpark wasn’t working. Bought my ticket.
Sunday, 11.00AM – Went outside to throw old heater in the bin. Didn’t speak.
ONLINE
Friday, 10.30PM to Present, ongoing – Countless and constant communication by text, IM, facebook, twitter, email, WordPress.
Plenty of my days and nights have looked like that as well
It’s the price I pay to be a writer
I don’t have the privilege of minimal interactions. Someone is always calling or stopping me to talk. There are times I’d like to talk to people less.
i think i like it this way. i stopped answering the phone years ago and told people to txt or fb instead. that helped
If that would work with my mother, I’d try it. No dice though
lol
I had plenty of weekends like this when I was living alone. Most weekends I talk only to Mr. Weebles and that’s only because he’s here and I can’t avoid him.
Maybe one day there will be a Mrs Gentleman
Stop turning down all the potential MRS. Gentleman’s and start wooing.
Sounds peaceful….
It can be!
Hmmmm I think your days are filled with delighted mystery and you don’t want to share and make all of us feel mundane!
Haha! Well i havent told you what the emails and txts are about lol
