Now, I don't want people to think that I'm a killjoy or anything, but I must be one of the few people in this world who doesn't like parties. Whether they be discos held in halls, or people crowding into a house party. I don't know why it is, but there's just a feeling of dread, a feeling that if I could be anywhere else, that is where I'd like to be!!
Take last night, it was a friend's 21st and the moment I found out that it was a party as opposed to just meeting up in a pub for some drinks I didn't want to go. I didn't want to leave the house, I wanted to walk elsewhere on the way up, I wanted to sneak out of the pub and I didn't feel happy till I was on my way home.
If you ask me why, there's no reason that I can give, it just the way it is. I have now started to get a reputation for "disappearing" during parties, if I can.
I can remember finding out about a surprise b-day party that some friends were going to throw for me a few years ago. The only thing that made me turn up was guilt. I was all packed and ready to head into the hills with my; "oh, sorry, didn't realise it was that important that I turned up...."
What can I say?? If I had the choice between being outside in the open in the middle of no-where, or in a cramped room full of people, I know which one I'd pick...... which makes it sound so terrible really.... the great unwashed masses and all that.... ;)
Other cool places that I've spotted in the States. JFK Space Center in Cape Canaveral, you can even spot a shuttle at the visitor center, Mount St Helens and Boulder Dam.
Just realised that Duracell is sitting behind me, so I'll finish here and go bug her!!!!
Take care now!!!
