Feeling strange again.

It's like I'm nervous of something, but I have no idea why I'd be nervous. I have nothing in particular to worry about (apart from all my usual worries of course, nnhh Sad). Maybe it's because I'm feeling indescisive too here. I still have a lingering slimy throat and cough from my illness (which my god-awful cough medicine does precious little to alleviate), and that makes me uncertain if I should go to the gym or not today. But I feel I should go anyway, been away for four days now, longest break EVER so far and I fear I might start slacking off if I delay for too long. That would be disastrous.

So I feel torn over this issue, and maybe that is what makes me feel so damn strange. If only I had someone to share these concerns with, someone close. Dammit... I really want a boyfriend. Sad

So what am I saying in this post? Not sure.

It's just more of my aimless rambling, my fears, my doubts, my uncertainties. I'm sleeping too much these days, woke up after eleven today and when I did I immediately started feeling strange. Day could have started off better I think...

A big reason for my moodiness is the fact I've spent so much time alone in my apartement these last few days. Yesterday was the first time I went out the door since getting sick, I did the café+book thing, and took a walk in the forest afterwards too. But I still feel the walls closing in on me today, I'll go NUTS soon if I keep staying indoors like this... I check the message board too often. I check my email too often. And I don't get enough responses. I need additional stimuli, but where do I find that?

I CAN'T spend time sitting at a café reading books. I'd be doing something different somewhere else, sure. But I'd still be doing it ALONE. So no major difference after all.

There's a martial arts dojo near my gym. I'm going to check it out and see if they have a beginner's group or something... I need to get to know new people, and doing it while practicing a sport serves twin purposes. Exercise clears my head too.

once you get back to work everything will start to feel normal again, cos you'll have something to take your mind off things and you'll worry less.

What is happening is that oyu are allowing your feleings into the open. Some days this is a wonderful release and other days can even cause mild paranoia. Recognising it for what it IS allows you to control it and become content.

Yum. Martial Arts. Go for a wrestling one, not a kicking one

Back from the gym now, I feel much better.

Of course, I'm still lonely, lol, but weird feeling is gone so that's a relief. Body feels nice and warm now too, hope I did not go back too soon after my bout with the flu.


And Tim, martial arts I looked at was Tae Kwon Do, lots of kicks, some punches, zero wrestling. Not sure I'd handle wrestling; if guy was attractive it could easily get embarrassing. Control over my own body never was my strongest side! Smile

Anyway, I'm open to suggestions.
