[touch] 'Duh' moment

[wispfox]

Driving home from work, I was struck by a bit of of a 'duh' moment, as far as trying to figure out why it was that this year was so much more difficult than the last, in terms of being touch needy.

Um. Because last year I _had_ a reasonably regular source of non-effortful, known to be wanted & comfortable touch, from someone who sought out my company about as often as I did the reverse. Duh. *shakes head* Sometimes, my obviousness amazes me. And, of course, now I miss said friend terribly.


In a completely unrelated train of thought, the amount of stuff I am packing for this weekend is amazing. Mostly because of the large pile of blankets.

LOTS of LAYERS for Sunday night. It gets COLD.

Layers, yes. Long underwear, turtlenecks, sweaters, winter coat, scarf, gloves, hat...

I'm going to look like a marshmallow person!

That is a *good thing* :) To make you feel better, I think I've got seven bags (two duffels, two backpacks, one tote, one trash bag full of blankets and towels, and one grocery bag) plus miscellaneous stuff like my sleeping bag.

Also, what catya said. I bring and often wear four complete layers plus a sweater and outerwear for each day. Of course, sometimes it's just too cold to take your long underwear off... ;-)

Oh, my. 7? Wow.

Admittedly, I don't have my blankets _in_ anything. And I only have one towel.

Perhaps I shall add yet more layers of clothing, tonight. I already have a bunch, but hey!
