Unfortunately, it could be someone living a mile down the road and I still don't think I could work up the nerve to even leave the house. It's safer here anyway. I have found that making friends (I mean close friends) is not at all easy in this day and age (too many pervs, freaks. terrorism, trust issues, criminal types, scams, etc). If this were the "innocent 50's" it might not be so tough. Who knows.

My current friend/roommate, I have known for 25 years and once he "goes", I see myself being all alone in life. My family is pretty superficial so no help/companionship there. Maybe I'll run through the streets naked quoting cartoon characters so I can get myself committed if it ever reaches the point where I have no friends and I'm all alone in life.
