Why I hate living alone
10 reasons why I hate living alone (primary school age children don't count):
1 Shouting at the TV becomes pointless & jeuvenile
2 You end up with loads of half used tins/packets/jars as produce is not designed for cooking for one
3 The knowledge that you've got all evening to do something, means you don't start it till bedtime
4 Bed is somewhere you go to sleep & wait for tomorrow to start
5 You turn into a slob, because who knows? who cares?
6 there is no-one to rant at over lifes everyday problems, so stress levels rise
7 There is no-one to rant at you about lifes every day problems, so you feel less smug & secure in yourself
8 You suddenly notice how many noises your house/neighbourhood makes
9 Your phone bill is astronomical
10 Your mother thinks she can tell you how to live your life again.
Ok, I admit it, I'm not good at living on my own. in fact, I hate it. I've managed to avoid it pretty much all my life. Even when I was travelling around the world, I met up with people regularly, or chatted to other inmates of the youth hostels etc. This is going to be the longest I have spent on my own ever - and I'm already fed up with it. I know some people like it, but it's just not for me. For all his many faults, Mr A does a fantastic job of looking after me, and I miss it. So no real blog tonight, just me feeling sorry for myself.

Actually, I asked Aginoth today how you were doing and he suggested I come see you for a wee womanly chat (ie a good old bitch!).
You're not alone, Mrs Aginoth.

You are not alone - well, yes you are actually, BUT NOT FOR LONG! Rejoice!

Ah, Mary P - you are indeed on my wavelength. I was thinking.....
I go round, we put the kids to bed, we put on a film or two, eat junk, put the world to rights and then sleep it off :-)
What are friends for?

I see that Mr. Aginoth is missing you, too — it's all very sweet.
