this is a lonely life

I’m still travelling a lot for work.  I meet a heck of a lot of people on these trips, and sometimes too many.  I’m at a conference where all day long I meet new people — it’s like I’m public property.   Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy it, I like meeting people and trying to find out what it is about everyone that is interesting.   But as a result at the end of the day I just want to sit in my hotel room like a hermit. I don’t do that, of course, but there it is.   It’s a funny mix of being with too many people but still feeling lonely, because the connections with all of these people stay on the superficial level; I can’t be myself while I’m on like this.

At least I can decompress with work friends, and be myself again after a little while.

    Try again…. I call it plugging in the wall time. I can be social all day but need the evening to re-energize. I learned that while in Wyoming..
