. . I didn't know you get social anxiety. I suspect I have experienced a lot of things that could be put into that category. I stopped worrying about it a long time ago, because I pretty much decided to accept any social awkwardness I possess as a given and decided not to give a shit. If I have to be a wallflower, so be it! It's not like it really matters that much in the grand scheme of things. Of course it's a lot easier for me to adopt that point of view when I already have so many great friends (including you!).
You should have gotten your colonoscopy while painting the eaves on your cottage. That would have been efficient! . .
My social anxiety presents itself when I sometimes really want to spend time with friends but then there's this part of me that does not want to be around people at all. It's like a reclusiveness that kicks in. It's not that I'm anti-social, just that I long for alone time. But generally, when this happens I try to not worry about being some weird old cat lady (or dog lady) in the future and just go with it and I don't let it interfere with definite plans I've made with friends. The thing is, though, that sometimes I wonder if I could live with someone (a partner) or if I'm just so into living alone that my future potential partner and I would need to get a duplex and live next door to each other.
Regarding the colonoscopy while painting the eaves... I wonder if the technicians have tubes long enough to stick up my ass while I'm on a step ladder!!! Great idea though, I'll keep it in mind for the next time.
