How freeing it felt to comfortably eat alone in a restaurant, without my nose buried in a book, and with a sincere smile for anyone making eye contact. To accept the host's "just one today?" query without feeling little or lonely.
I achieved another bit of liberation today. The three word games (two being variations of Boggle) that I play on-line seem to have score ceilings for me. The best I've done in Boggle has been the middle of the "low" scoring line, just a tad above "very low", but well below medium. And I've been stuck at 990 point on PathWords for months. Periodically I trash the links and say "oh well" or something else that rhymes . . . .
But I like playing word games! So today I just decided "PLAY THE GAME AND IGNORE THE SCORE!" And why not? So that's MY new rule, and I'm stickin' to it.
