Although I see some of the same regular and familiar faces, I can't say I know them. I can be as isolated as I want and yet I can smile at a toddler or bring a smile to worker and engage others (though usually quite superficially) as opportunities present themselves. I fear telling too many people how much I enjoy coffee shops; fearing they will take my space. I have not totally understood the appeal.

In fact, my own favorite place closed for two years and I felt bereft, a wanderer. I had begun referring to it as my office! They reopened in December, and it is scary how quickly I begin to see it as "my place" again. But having lost it once, I am more grateful for it now. I agree completely!

It is amazing how quickly I can feel like it is mine. I think I am more addicted to the coffee shop and its ambiance than to the coffee. It is amazing how quickly I can feel like it is mine.
