Well, I have just spent a year living alone (for the first time in my life),
and I hated it!!!  I dont know quite what it means to say that living alone
is "unnatural".  It seemed natural enough, just dammed lonely!  I found that
I would make an effort to spend as little time at home as possible, and that
when I was home, I would always have the TV or stereo on to make some noise
in the house. 

My new roommate and I are getting along wonderfully. . .
