I want to do so many things lately with friends but have had almost 0 social battery. I wish I could do things adjacent to other people, like... I wanna play a game while sitting next to someone while they play their own game, or read a book with my legs in someone's lap or vice versa!!

Parallel hobby-ing where we're both doing our own thing, but are around enough to idly comment on what we're doing without having to fully engage the entire time.

I want to do that! And maybe share tea.

#i miss having an apartment and a roommate.#admittedly i would get stressed out being in such close quarters with people 24/7 #but it would be nice to have again if we had the ''astronaut time'' policy. yk from the post?#ohhhhh i miss having floor time with my roommates actually too.#lying on the floor in quiet. occasionally SIGHING and venting whatever is stressing us. no obligation to comment. just existing.#something about floor time with a friend when stressed is really good.#the. LOL. the big sigh from one of us followed by the pat pat of silent solidarity.#i don't miss college bc a lot of it did an insane number on my mental health that i'm still working through. but.#i miss having a close social circle and independence. and the freedom to just go out if i wanted.#i could!!! ride my bike to the store!!! or walk! and i didn't have to get permission!!! it was fantastic.#anyway. ahhh. man. maybe again one day.#merri mumbles
