I hope my future wife doesn't mind that I have a constantly updated list of approved baby names that all happen to be the names of fictional characters.

OMG GUYS, YOU WONT BELIEVE THIS! I was out playing with the dog earlier and I stumbled upon a relic from an ancient civilization! I wonder what it is, or what it was used for? So exciting to find ancient history in my own backyard!

I cant sleep. It is now 4am and I've just been sitting in bed with my thoughts eating away at me. I dont know why this is hitting me now, with such degree, but right now I feel something i cannot really explain. I guess the best word would be alone? I know I have many friends and family who care about me, who love me, and would be there for me at the blink of an eye, but i still feel alone. I still lack the connection I long for day after day. Every day I sit at my computer, talking on facebook, playing games online with friends. It tides me over, but I dont feel the connection. I invite my best friend. My ONLY local friend over, maybe once a weekend or two, and what happens? We sit next to each other and watch a screen. The same thing we do online, but in the same room. That is it. That is the entirety of my physical social life. The only exception is conventions. Conventions are the happiest part of my life. It feeds me the social, physical connection I always crave. People around me. Laughing. Playing. Talking. Enjoying the scenery. Hugging. Sharing food and drink. Everything that I do not get to do most of the year. When online, I cannot pull myself away. It isnt addiction, as my father believes. It is fear. Fear I might miss something. Fear that someone may want to talk to me and I wont be online to answer. Fear that something may be going on somewhere that I may be missing out on. I cant go do things I enjoy, because I dont want to do them alone. I love stargazing. I love walking on beaches. I love climbing trees. I love so many things that I cannot bring myself to do alone, and my only local friend to do things with is busy with school and work and life. I remember the days of being in relationships where I had someone who really cared, and was close enough to see all the time, go do things with that didnt involve screens, that would coax me out of my house and together would find some awesome things to do. Being single feels so painful, not because i miss the sensual moments, but because I miss the connection. I wish I had the resources to move out. Move closer to where all my friends are. Move to a place where I can walk out the door, down the road and grab a couple mates for lunch and a walk through the park. Call up my buddies late at night and have them join me for a stargazing party and drink some sodas. Right now, all I can do is reach out. I  talk to people constantly, and many times I am afraid that I am bothering them. I feel like I initiate the conversation 9 times out of 10, and that scares me. Do people not want to start a conversation with me? What if this person actually doesnt care? What if I am just that guy who happens to be in that group of friends, not a close friend, but a friend to talk to on occasion? And girls.  When I talk to an attractive girl, am I making them uncomfortable? Do they think Im only talking to them cause I have a crush on them? When I offer to hang out or give a ride, do they believe that I have hidden motives? These questions drown me every time I type a message to someone. I am drowning in my thoughts. All I want is a hug. A physical connection. Even a phone call with the soothing voice of a friend who cares and just wants to talk. Ever since all my friends moved out of town, I have started to feel alone and left out. The digital media has been my life raft, but it lacks the strength of a physical relationship with friends. I'm not depressed or sad by any means, no I am still happy with my life thus far, but holy hell... I feel so alone....
