A few years ago I used to get up on the weekends and drive myself to the golf range up in Lorton, VA, where several people go to on the weekends. If you’re lucky, you could get a spot without having to wait for few minutes—sometimes it can be crowded! It’s fun that you do something that although you’re not really good at it – but doing it and having a great time with it means a lot to me. It’s a way for me to get away from the normal world and relax and do whatever or mess up even. Golf there you can do whatever you want, not hit people with the club or throw golf balls at people (!), but miss the ball however many times you like. Just go out there and kill as much time you like. It’s nice to loosen up and have a great time every once in a while.
I’ve noticed that I like to do stuff in solitaire. Not sure why but I like the feeling to have a good time with myself and not have to worry about other people. I worry about people I care when I absolutely have to worry about them. Otherwise, you do pretty much you want and I do the same. I use the same approach to anything pretty much even when just killing time on the weekends. Like on the weekends if I feel like golfing, I’ll go golfing. If I feel like bowling, I’ll go bowl. If I like taking the dogs to the dogs park, I’ll go play with them. That’s how I like solitude, where I do things alone but have fun at the same time. I suppose having been single for a while you develop a solitaire outlook on things, doing this alone, going there alone, etc. It’s fun that you have no boundaries and no limitations to anything you do. You just get up and go, as one of my friends used to say.
So this weekend is re-connecting to some of my old habits… yay golf! I will take sometime for myself (!) to get back to some of the things I enjoy doing with or without anybody. I often drag my brother with me, though! He seem to enjoy same things I do. The only difference is that I’m “fabulous”!
Have a great weekend, everyone!
