I always was a nervous stressed out kid. I was always the first one up, dressed, and walking to the bus stop an hour before I needed to be just because I was afraid I'd miss the bus. I was incredibly shy around strangers and even snuck out of birthday parties and sleepovers to sleep in the woods by myself! Can you imagine?!
Even now I'm like that, which is why I had to leave Mass for Maine because I can't stand lots of people. I didn't even want a wedding because I don't like crowds, even if they were all friends and family. We got married in a hotel room with just the JP and my husband, wore jeans, socks, and T-shirts. I won't go to large fairs, just small country ones, and I definitely won't go to concerts or any such thing. I went to Chicago once on a trip and had a virtual mental meltdown from the overload of tall buildings and traffic. Oh I was a complete wreck!
I know I'm weird, as others aren't afraid to tell me that, but I don't care. I know what my comfort zone is and I do whever I have to do to stay within it and stay sane. So what if that makes me a neurotic shut in who needs a sedative just to go grocery shopping.
