Solitude

I can't remember when I last vocalised anything today (apart from singing along to "That's What Makes You Beautiful" but that kind of ruins my point). This morning I went to the gym, did my thang and came back to an empty house where I have been pottering around, finishing my book, eating spoonfuls of nutella, then changing to peanut butter, watching youtube videos, then changing back to nutella, ironing (note to mum- very subtle leaving the ironing board out for me to trip over). I will never understand when people don't like their own company, sure you get the occasional odd look when you're in coffee shops by yourself, reading the paper in the middle of the day, but to me there's something calming about spending the day with nothing more than the slurp of tea, the tip tap of keyboard keys, the sound of a page turning and your own insanity.
