Phobias...

[fajrdrako]

I have three phobias which, could I mute them, would make my life as slick as a sonnet, but as dull as ditch water: I hate to go to bed, I hate to get up, and I hate to be alone. - Tallulah Bankhead, 1903 - 1968

That was one hell of a woman.

I think so! What a sense of style she had.

I wouldn't call them phobias, but I hate doing all those things, too.

Me too! We're Tellulahs at heart.

I hate both to go to bed, to get up, but I love to be alone. Despite I need intelectual exchange with other people - so maybe it's not true (that I love to be alone).

Sometimes I like to be alone. When writing, for example. It depends on a lot of things! But I like being with people, too - even though it depends on the people,who they are and what they are like.

I love to go to bed (even alone), but sometimes I need to remind myself of it,
I like getting up, once I managed to wake up (something I am terrifically bad at) and how ever much I like company, I need alone time (desperately sometimes).
Apart from that I find it a hell of a quote :-)

So you're not Tallulah Bankhead, but then, neither is anyone else - she was unique!
