I think it's because I at least interact with the world while I'm in a coffee shop. I see people and I talk to them and I laugh internally when they almost fall out of their chairs while stretching. (Just happened to the guy across from me. It was HI-larious. He was embarrassed.)
There's something comforting about being in the presence of other people, even though literally everyone else here is on their computers or reading a book. Even though everyone's engaged in solitary pursuits, we're doing it together. It reminds me of being in the living room of Condo 55 and literally all 5 of us would be on our computers not talking, but at least we were together. It's nice.
On another note, I am perilously close to being actually penniless. It's kind of scary. It made me cry yesterday but then I got over it. I had to call in the dad and that severely dented my pride. But now he's going to help me do a little refinancing (I don't know what that is) and it's going to be better. Maybe I should let people help me more often... Ha! Who am I kidding? I can do everything on my own. (I was born in the feminist 80s, people. Don't tell me I can't do something.)
Wow, my ego surprises even me sometimes.
All this to say, if anyone knows someone who needs a day laborer or anything in KC, let me know. As long as it's legal, I'll do it.
Oh, and if you have a USBank account, you should close it now. They suck. A lot.
