Loneliness


They say that loneliness is very bad for your health. Almost as bad as smoking or not exercising. Well, I quit smoking 41 months ago and I plan to start exercising (heard that before) but I am so lonely I could cry (thank you Elvis). I haven't had a real friend in ages, except for my sister, and she lives almost 3000 miles away.
I guess I'm not good at making friends, or I've forgotten how. They say as you get older it's harder but I don't know if that's true. But nothing can be worse than lonely (well, I guess there are some things that could). If I didn't have my dog Jackie I don't know what I would do. She is my only companion, even though I share my living quarters with my ex (try not to do that if you can).
