I’ve read a few classics, but not the amount I would like.
I’ve already read:
The Three Musketeers, The Count of Monte Cristo, Oliver Twist, The Prince and the Pauper, The Lord of the Rings, The Iliad and The Odyssey, and a few others that I can’t recall at the moment.
I’m not exactly sure what I want to read next, but I’m sure to find something to my liking the next time I go to the library.

Talk more

Untitled 3 months ago

I pair up well with chatter-boxes. They do all the talking, and I do the nodding and smiling. Then they can leave feeling happy about their ‘conversation’ with me.
Unfortunately, most people don’t talk that much. I always feel like I make people feel awkward because I’m so quiet. I stand there, and they stand there. When they finally ask a question, I give them a mumbled, one-word answer because I can’t think of anything else to say. Then we go back to standing there till the other person looses patience with me and leaves.
I must admit, I prefer people leaving me and my train of thought alone, and saying ten words a day is fine with me. I’m just frustrated that when the need for conversation arises, my mind freezes up then proceeds to work like it’s swimming through tar.
