The Temptation of Solitude

I have often wondered whether, if I was given the chance, would I completely isolate myself from the entire world. As a loner (to some degree), it is a temptation of mine. It would be all too easy. I could potter around on my own, with not a care in the world. Now if I didn't have such wonderful family and friends, I would probably do it but at the end of the day, I know that being alone is simply not sustainable. However, for at least the next couple of days, I am going to relish in the fact that I am now the proud resident of a one bedroom unit all to my very self.

I now have my own little place, just for a little while. And if i actually owned a cat (and if i didn't think it would be cruel), I would actually swing it, just for the heck of it. It has a lovely little loungeroom with a flat screen TV, and a separate bedroom and bathroom. Admittedly, its situated on a busy street, and I am only three floors up and not twenty eight floors up (hence the noise is much greater) but its the price I have to pay to enjoy my own place!
