Well, this is fun. After all this time of sleeping when normal people sleep, I can not now. I am entirely too anxious and hyper. I tend to jiggle my knee when I'm nervous and it is going away.
Sometimes I get so mixed up.
I am lonely.
I'm sure there's something wrong with me. There must be. All these people that think so, surely they can't all be wrong.
The only thing is, there's nothing I can do about it. All I can do is be hurt and lonely. Rejected by all these people. Friends I had that hate me. Family that never wanted me.
Yeah so I'm having a pity party. If you don't like it, well, you're in good company with all the other people that can't stand me.
And no, I'm not looking for hugs and love and reassurance. If you don't hate me yet, don't worry, it's just a matter of time. It seems all I have to do is just be me, and it happens.
So all you people that hate me, or just don't like me, or whatever, go ahead and laugh while I'm crying. I can't change me. And you can't do anymore to me than has been done.
There's never any escape from yourself you know. I can't ever get away from me.
I wish I wasn't such a wimp. I have this whole first week of Feb to spend somewhere (kids are out of school) and I should just suck it up and make reservations to go to Rome. I mean, it's ROME! But I am a bit nervous about going there alone with the kids.
I really need to get a grip on this 'Life is short, play hard' thing I am working on.![]()
We went to Rome about 5 years ago. I never once felt nervous or anxious about my surroundings. Of course, I was with my husband, but we did everything. Walked around after dark, took the subway, etc. I think you should do it!Stay in the touristy areas and go in after dark.
I could actually say the same thing. I've only been to Quebec and Florida. Never anywhere else. I really want to go to Ireland or Scottland but I dont know...You are lucky Teo!
All this talk from the international travelers...I've never been out of the US...except to Canada and that doesn't count. (not to slam Canada, love Canada, but well, they speak English...I've never been to Montreal either)
Oh, I am not nervous about the surroundings or any 'safety' issues. It is just thinking of dragging a 4 year old (and the 8 year old too) by myself through all the 'touristy' stuff. They've done it in other places (Paris, Munich, Cairo...) but I've had dh to help me with that.
What hotel did you stay in? I need something kid friendly that is close to a subway.
