do u leave ur house often?

oh, i absolutely do, whether i'm taking a bike ride to the convenience store for lunch or snacks, or driving to downtown to do fun things and hang out with friends. if it's a day i'm able to, and there's a cool event going in nearby, i will make a plan to leave the house and live it up. if i don't get any social interaction in my life, i'm going to go INSANE.

rarely. if i need to go to the mall for any reason or grocery shop then yeah, but otherwise, no.

aside from being kind of a hermit, there really isn't much desire for me to go places anyway since i'm at the point in my life where i have the mentality that doing anything aside from remaining home costs money, and i'm trying to save money for important future plans.

I'm out of my apartment probably more than I'd like. I work and have classes, go to a lot of local events and shows, and am a member of a local artist group. I also have days out every so often to hike around with my digicam.

Not as often as I'd like. I can't drive (I tried when I was 17 and scared off everyone willing to teach me  ) so anything more than a few blocks away is off the table. Luckily I live close enough to a park and my local downtown that I could walk but that requires a nice day and my asthma not flaring up. Days like that are in short supply. Fortunately I have friends and family that can take me places but at worst I can go a full month without leaving the house.

I try to venture out every day if possible, even if only for a little walk or skate. It does my body good to get air. In an ideal world I'd have the forest at my door instead of concrete; much easier to enjoy the outdoors when they're full of natural beauty.

I don't work, but I try to get out of the house most days when I can. To do that, I have a few routines. First, I go to the gym 3-5 times a week. Afterwards, I like to go to a small cafe that's open 24 hours and treat myself to some breakfast tacos. I'll usually bring my computer with me and hang out there for a few hours. It's a good time. Second, every Wednesday I go to trivia night at a dive bar with some friends. We've been doing it now almost every week for the last year or two. Then I try to go to church twice a week on Saturdays and Sundays. Of course, there's little things too like errands or when I have to take my mom to medical appointments and the like.

If I'm being honest, I don't like going out that much at all, particularly because of traffic on the roads. The people where I live drive like crazed idiot maniacs, and there's just so many cars on the roads at all times. It doesn't matter what time of day you're on the road; you're almost always going to get stuck in a traffic jam due to construction, a wreck, or too many damn cars on the road. Being out is nice, but getting to basically any destination is a huge pain in the ass.
