poll: relaxing

(re: previous entry - Thank you all so much for the supportive e-mails and the posts. They meant a great deal to me.) Outside our cottage window right now is a bird singing its heart out in an immensely complicated series of trills and chirps. I can't see it, but I'm sure it's one of those shockingly drab-looking types you wouldn't ordinarily spare a second glance. But open its beak and WHOA, sit back and be enthralled. As you can tell from today's Blatherpic, I've started up Waiting For Frodo again, sent an update notice to about 1350 people on the notification list. Poor Sam was waiting out in that snowstorm for so long all by himself, I couldn't stand it. Using the Wacom pen and tablet still feels a bit creaky, but it's so good to doodle again! Must get back to My Life in a Nutshell, too. I'm in the lake a lot these days. I swim laps back and forth in front of the dock, mostly using my legs, a styrofoam ring around my waist to give my arms a break. From time to time I'll lie back and just float with my arms outstretched and eyes closed, sky above and lake below. It's a wonderful sensation, that feeling of weightlessness and isolation from the rest of the world, just for a short time. POLL: relaxing - people or not?When you want to relax, do you tend to seek out the company of others (whether this means friends or just being part of a crowd) or prefer being alone? Noise or quiet?
