Reboot! [taptap]
Aug. 13th, 2003 02:37 pmContact with other people drains me. It doesn't matter if I like them, or if we're having the best time in the world, there's a sort of energy that gets used up just by being near them. Given that talking online doesn't count as much, I can even sort of guess at the mechanism behind it, although I don't feel like expounding on that right now.
After about four days without significant alone time I start to get snippy and... well, not 'depressed' so much as 'unenthusiastic'.
So, last week, I had a game Friday night after working all day, spent all weekend down in Portland with poeple, then came up and worked all day Monday and then had another game Monday night. And of course worked Tuesday.
All of those things went pretty well, by themselves... but by the end of all that I was starting to have physical symptoms. @.@
I think I'm better now, though. Tuesday night I was able to finally 'unpack', and I mean more than just my luggage...
