Just like you said it

I know, and this has been told to me countless times, that I should not make work my life. But I say this, my job is probably the only thing I have now that wouldn’t cause me to break down and wonder what the hell I was doing. PROBABLY, because at times I do get the jitters, you know what I mean?

Anyway, point is, I do not take my work home. Although I do always bring home my work mobile laptop, just to feel a little secured (and to fill up that freaking big bag I bought – I don’t want to look like an idiot, you see). But I don’t bring work home, in that sense. There is a difference between just bringing work home, and doing work at home. I don’t the latter. I do however occasionally check my work emails at home, ’cause I have nothing better to do.

Which brings me to my next point, that I am probably too lonely. Not feeling lonely, but the state of being alone. I was hanging out with myself the other Saturday (YES, MYSELF and SATURDAY, what is the world coming to, ay?), my friend who bumped into me felt so sorry for me she offered to accompany me.

Of course I graciously declined, what, with her boyfriend just next to her? No thanks. But that’s beside the point. Point is, yes, I sometimes do feel the void of having to go home after work to an empty house. Which is why I prefer to hang around somewhere until it’s late enough when my house mates are home.

I don’t know about this bringing-home-work business, but I do feel like I’m missing something everytime I knock off work. Now tell me, how in the world do you solve this? Of course, assuming that this is a problem in the first place, is it? Just like you said it, sometimes all we need is time to ourselves. But I had anough time to myself, now can we freaking start the party?

p.s. I think I have just been snubbed, but note to self: I don’t really care so much, I will still do what I want to do, will I?.
