The downside of this time as a hermit is that it's getting harder and harder to be with people. (It has been nice to conquer loneliness, but it was the force that drove me out the door.)
(7pm) Two of my best sex organs are my hands. (Right now they wouldn't be much use, since they are covered with little cuts from playing with the cat.)-(In the age of Aids I suppose any cut means an end to sex until it has healed.)
The cat slept most of the day, but she is getting friskier when she is awake. Also, she has started to eat more.
I set up some toys for her to play with tomorrow while I am at work. (Maybe I will leave the radio on to keep her company.)
I still haven't decided what to do about a name for her.
(9pm) Quiet nite. (Nice!)
The sound of rain is soothing.

(5am) I woke up at 4am on my own. (I am a bit nervous about returning to work.)
(7am) Nice workout!
(6pm) Work went well.
I will be getting a partial paycheck before Xmas.
I will be getting three weeks a year vacation time and 12 days of sick leave.
The health insurance doesn't start until February but it looks like a good policy.
(7pm) Erica stopped by to see how day one of work went. (It sounds like she had a fun weekend!)
There is a beautiful tall blond (Maddie) at work. She suggested I join the volleyball team. (I wish I wasn't so uncoordinated!) (Actually, there are several good-looking single women there.)
Their Xmas party is Saturday. (People in the break room are already trying to talk me into going.)

(6am) The cat has a new trick. (Walking around the rim of the bathtub while I am bathing. (That could be dangerous for me.))
She keeps changing where she sleeps, so I keep moving stuff around so she doesn't break anything. (One thing I will have to learn before finding a girlfriend is to compromise and make adjustments in my life to make room for another.)-(The cat is already teaching me a little about that.)
