Writer's Block: Table for One
[Error: unknown template qotd]
OK, now that I have expressed my final bit of anger for boss in my post (only for me), here goes with this great question.
Now, before I answer this question, it has to be clarified for anyone not in the know, that I hate to be alone in public, but more because I hate to be seen alone. -- I've been like this since school. In my worst years, grade four and year 7, I had no friends and I absolutely hated it. I would absolutely dread recess and lunchtimes when I'd be on my own. I hated the thought of being seen as "the girl with no friends".
I am pleased to say the above school years were the only years of being alone. In grade five, most of six, and the rest of high school, I belonged; I was part of a group, and I will be eternally greatful for that, especially for my good friends I had at high school!
anyway, all this to say that no, I will rarely sit down at a restaurant alone. I have mannaged to do this occasionally over the past few years; only if I am really desperate, ie. really can't be bothered cooking and don't feel like going home to an empty house. More often than not though, I will get take-away and go home.
So, I guess this should be more a question of "do you fear being alone in public places" and my answer is "yes". 99 percent of the time, I will be at sit-down restaurants with one, or, a group of friends.
The only time when being on my own in public is 100% acceptable , is when I am travelling from A to b on foot and/or public transport.
And, I actually looove travelling overseas by myself. I haven't, but don't think I'd want too, do it any other way.
To the rest of my news, yesterday was a stressful day.
Last night was the committee meeting for puter users group. Hopefully we can get this audio and voip crap sorted out once and for all. I don't know how long I want to bother staying otherwise.
As I did last year, I have been watching "THE BIGGEST LOSER" again. This year, there are ten couples. Yesterday saw them being divided up into their teams for the coaching of either shannon or Michelle, but the couples are the individual teams, competing with the other couples.
They also went into the wearhouse to find out what food they can choose from for the week. Unfortunately I had to go to meeting before this, so I missed out on seeing what their choices were. I think I will join the "biggest loser" community on LJ as, with everything, there is one. I think from memory from seeing it on friends pages, it's called![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
au_biggestloser. am sure i'll find out from that.
