I call myself a "trained extrovert." So when I'm at parties, set me up with a comfy seat, some herbal, and let me chill. When I'm floating I will talk; I'll engage. But I'm also a nerd so don't sit me next to someone I have to make small talk with...I hat that. I want someone I can talk to about global/local/national issues. Someone who can talk just as easily bout Soul Plane (that shit is still funny to me even as problematic as it is) as they can about Kindred (the book not that trash ass series).

I so understood your DND on your phone. That has got to be the most pleasant space ever! Keep writing and I'll keep reading! Love ya!

Yes, I actually stopped watching in episode two. But I'm going to go back and try to finish watching it. It was just disappointing because that is my favorite book of all time. It's one of the few books of hers that is literally easy to adapt---but I guess not.

DND is the peacemaker for real. I set mine for 10pm-7am so that my folks across time zones don't wake me up. When I'm not on-call it's on silent.

I feel you. I would probably say I’m an ambivert as well. But only at work. When I get off? I mostly like to be by myself or recharging with a friend or two. That’s great about your phone. And ignoring people. I don’t talk to very many people at all. And very few people call. Which is sometimes lonely, but I never really had many friends. So that’s normalcy for me. Good read. Thanks for sharing.
