Sometimes though, I'll be on an "alone day" and feel guilty. Hmm, I could have said yes to drinks with a friend or hmm I could be going out to dinner with my family. But as I walk into a mall and come out with 10 bags or take a drive by the ocean while blaring music, it snaps me back into reality, making me realize I needed it!
I stumbled upon an article the other day about "24 dates to take yourself on" and frankly, I don't see anything wrong with that! Two of my favorites that I definitely would enjoy doing some day:
The indoor all-nighter date.
See what happens when you stay home and don’t sleep. Maybe you’ll end up
creating something brilliant, maybe you’ll binge watch an entire TV series on HBOGO — who knows? We’re often surprised by what happens when it’s just our thoughts and us.
Coffee shop fun.
You can take a book or your trusty laptop as a companion, but make sure to
order a large version of your favorite drink and perhaps a snack, then stay a while.
Don’t leave until you can smell coffee beans within the fabric of your clothing.
Might I add that me + binge watching an entire TV series = pure happiness. I won't tell you how long it took me to catch up on 3 Walking Dead seasons starting from season 1 (ahem...a little over 1.5 weeks).
Have you ever had an alone day? What did you do?
