I'm hoping this is the section where what I am trying to understand will be appreciated most.
As of late, I've been realizing how formulaic my life outside of the house has become, almost routine. The scary part is, I am so "regular" at some establishments, they literally know me by name
Cash n Pawn, I know the clerk's (Josh) name. Pawn America, they ALL know my name. The regular waitress at Baker's Square? Knows exactly what soda I get, AND that it's without ice. Movie theatre? I walked in, Gini knew exactly what I was there to see..again.
My question is, is what I do normal? Is the fact I am so well known normal? Is my predictability a byproduct of comfort, laziness to explore other places, or some weird inner fear? Should I switch things up a little?
I thinks it great!! It's great when everyone knows your name...just like Cheers....That's why people move to small towns and go to small churches...etc...Though you could also put a little spice in your life by also adding adventure....But I think you're lucky....Unless you start getting bored.
I think it's normal. My parents shop at a store almost everyday, and almost everyone who works there knows their names. My parents also know their names. We've been shopping there since it first opened.
Gender: Male Location: behind there, near here, next to yo
Exactly. Many people wish they had places to go where everyone knows their name. I wouldnt say what you do is predictable, just routine or maybe even habit. dont knock a good thing. If you want un-predictability wait a while. Life wil throw you curve balls which will force you to change things up (as i'm sure you already know). So enjoy a good thing while you can. As long as you try new things every once in a while, what is wrong with sticking to what works for you? Just because you do the same thing every day doesnt mean you cant have new experiences doing it. I would say from my experiences, the only thing wrong from a regular routine is that after you become to habitual you may not be prepared for when change does happen.
