Wait, wait, wait!

My name is Swathi and I'm pretty much a loser. If it wasn't for Karin Goodfellow, this thing would be a diary. In other words, people don't read it. But I post anyway, because it satisfies me. If you so choose you may email me at swathi.c.reddy@gmail.com. I am also on facebook.

Hugs

I don’t know anyone who likes to hug me, more than I like to hug other people. Which makes me sort of sad.

I don’t know where I heard this, but they (who?) say you need to be touched 5 times a day (handshakes, hugs, kisses, whatever) to not go insane.

I am working nights at the hospital and this is definitely, definitely true. Being nocturnal is one thing I cannot do (happily). Add to that the emptiness of the hospital and some very sick patients, and there is no greater feeling of desolation.

Does touching five patients a day count as being touched five times?

I need a hug. Takers?
