Thanks, Eric, for your kind words. I know what you mean about those wintery nights. Not sure I could return to the North.

Let’s talk about that. Your diagnosis may be right. I still go out our back door to avoid people.

Disturbing! Heavens! I think your diagnosis may still hold. I have gone out the back door of our home at ES for nearly 20 years to avoid encounters. Feels like introversion.

Hi, Roger! I really liked this piece. As you know, I also grew up in Indiana, and there's something spectacularly powerful about those cold, snowy Winter nights that stirs the emotions and thoughts. I miss them.

Your writing is getting better and more interesting. Keep it up!

I really like Fred H.'s "Rain on my window pane." Nice guitar playing.

Well written and spoken, but disturbing. Sounds like you had acute social anxiety! I'm glad you're better now, but it's too bad you weren't able to get some help with that when you were young. Your girlfriend must have been completely mystified.
