Alone.
Today I kind of experienced something from the perspective of a onlooker. I was sitting in Famous Daves waiting for a seat. A man walked in. "How many sir?" the hostess asked. "One." The man replied. Obviously I overheard. The mans circumstances are unknown. But my initial thought was I Don't Want To Be Alone. Just like the Bee Gees said. I have been alone enough in my life. Eating lunch at the Cougareat. Or studying in the library. And being alone is fine in those situations. But I have never had to pronounce "Table for One." Never had to vocalize my being alone. And I believe this is the first time I have witnessed an alone experience out loud. It kind of made me sad. Companionship seemed to be more important at that moment than any other time. Whether it be with a friend, family, spouse, associate, or random person on the street (not that I advise this route) companionship seems important. Having someone to be with. So you don't have to be alone. I hope that I do not have to ever ask for a table for one. I was just thinking about that. That's all.
