Who knocks at my peace with no keys to my soul?

Mostly just posting something to indicate that yes, I do live.  I've just been uberwonky as of late, and inconsistent and ADD and etc.

Fanime made me so happy ;_;  It's one thing to have an online network of patently awesome people, but it is another thing to actually see the people and interact with them.  Plus, looking at all of the beautiful cosplaying is forever my favorite part of Fanime itself.  

I did come to a conclusion afterwards though - I need to make more of an effort to make more friends IRL.  That sounds very terrible but it is true.  I object to making friends with co-workers because I'm not interested in people at work knowing too much about my private business, so I have to find other outlets and other ways to connect with people offline.  I found a knitting shop that is nice to sit and chill at, and I have to look more into finding more interest-based networks.

I should have pictures of pretty knitted things I made later this week <3  including a shrug and some mitts.

Yeah, moving around a lot is not really conductive to forming lasting friendships, so you shouldn't feel bad about that at all. I do have one piece of advice, and that's to possibly reevaluate your position on no coworker friendships, because coworkers can often turn into great friends. Maybe if you find yourself at a job where you feel more at home and like what you do you might be less adverse to the idea? I can see you being reluctant to connect to coworkers if you're in a job that makes you miserable, and sometimes even in a great job you just won't click with each other. The knitting group is a really great idea, though!
