I'm bored at work, planning the weekend

So I’ve been thinking of things to do. I’m single again (9 months or so now). I have to plan waaaay in advance to get friends to do anything more than a night out.

So I got to thinking about this past summer and the trips I took.

I started realizing that the ones I took alone have much greater memories for me than any I took with friends.

Then I got to thinking about the times I’ve just gone off alone to some new city/place for whatever reason and find those memories stand out best too.

So now I’m no longer bored but instead kind of excited trying to think of all the places I plan to go, no longer waiting for friends to get the time/money to join me.

I have no idea why I’m sharing this. I guess I just feel good at the moment thanks to my revelation.

Good for you! I figured out a long time ago that if I waited for others to do something I wouldn’t get to do all the things I want to. What is funny is that many times after I’ve done what I planned, someone will ask me why I didn’t say something because they would have gone along. Truth is I’ve waited for other people to commit on an activity so many times that most of the time it doesn’t even occur to me to ask someone if they want to go. :slight_smile:
