greenstormI'm sliding into myself as a 13-year-old. This is the life I lived then.
Aside from sewing, cooking, gardening, being really earnest, being enthusiastically idealistic, and having a mix of bafflement and impatience for most humans I am re-embracing my method for making friends.
It pretty much involves walking up to someone and saying "you look neat because of X. I'd like to do Y."
So far this mostly involves "you look neat on the internet because (you are PDA/you are a woodland creature/you do plants/whatever). I'd like to friend each other and watch from a distance for awhile."
It feels good to do. I learned a long long time ago that life is too short not to be forthright, and much too short to assume other people will do the work for you. Also it feels shitty when they "mysteriously" don't do the work.
TBH this is probably why I've dated too many people who want other people to do the work.
PS Hazard is staring transfixed into the flames of the woodstove, which I highly approve of but seems like a very ...human.. thing to do?
