I wish I had some company
I imagine this would be a fun trip if I had some people to hang out with. The young kids in my class, well they have their own things to do (family in the area, plans, etc) and everyone's just kind of doing their own thing.
There are a lot of nice restaurants here I'd like to try. I've been to a couple but feel weird about eating dinner by myself. I get over it, but it's not easy for me.
I was thinking for a hot minute about going to the zoo today. It's a nice day and I haven't been to the zoo for years. Wanna know who's at the zoo today? Moms and young kids. Can you say "CREEPER?" Some 54 year old guy hanging out at the tiger cage conjures up that image to me, so the zoo is off the list. The botanical gardens was OK. That's kind of an old people thing. I saw my fair share of old, young, single, and moms with kids, so that wasn't creepy. But the zoo?
That screamed CREEPER to me.
Six Flags sounds fun, too, but again, CREEPER!
It's the sad reality of the world we live in, and a wise person understands that.
It's a little too early for the bar. I'm a little too not going to the bar for the bar these days, too. Torchy's tacos has a bar but they're packed for lunch, so I might try them later, except that it's slider night at the hotel. So no tacos on taco Tuesday.
I can hang out at the hotel and not be a creeper. There's a lot of people here by themselves.
I'm normally shy. That seems odd because once I meet you, that melts away quickly. I think that's a lot of why I was so struck by how friendly the folks at the church I went to on Sunday. I just am some schmuck, and they made me feel so welcome. I wish that was something I was better at.
Someday, maybe.
As I write this, there is a lady down by the pool. She's by herself and I just got back from buying some sunscreen. I have my swim trunks on and I'm ready to go, but again, the battle of being the creeper sets in. It's only two. I'll go down in a bit.
Sometimes, it's tough being me.
