Do you tend to like to take time to be alone with your thoughts? If so, where are your favorite places for this?
Mine are my car, my balcony, and my bathtub.
The tattoo parlor while getting a tattoo (it's like meditating for me), or just chilling in my room.
My bed...Right before I sleep. Total quiet, total peace, total serenity...Total use of my brain FOR ME.
in my home, the place that i feel comfortable in... which is gunna change for me :sigh::
Anywhere. When I'm in my own head, it doesn't matter where I am or who's around; I'll ignore everything equally.
Sometimes I snap out of a thought five minutes after somebody's said something to me and it'll be there in my memory like a message left on an answering machine for me to find for the first time, and I'll pick up the conversation from there. Really weird experience.
Pretty much anywhere I go my thoughts are with me. They're portable like that and I can tune people out pretty easily.
my thought's wait till there's time..........they don't really care about the where
In the shower, out on a fast paced walk lol or sitting by a window.
At work.
On the sidewalk.
On the bus.
On the subway.
Anywhere I'm surrounded by people usually.
Fuck I hate you all.
my bedroom!
Truthfully the only place left in the world a person can be alone with their thoughts when the need arises is the shitter. It's the one place on earth no one is gonna bother you.
cleaning the litter box...gotta cope somehow!
I can be alone with my thoughts anywhere, because believe me; growing up with seven other siblings has given me the gift of tuning anyone out anywhere..
However, I prefer to be somewhere out in nature. ie: one of the cemetaries by my house, walks through the neighborhood next to mine, the beach, the mountains............... Somewhere out in nature.
Underground - a guaranteed zero-cell-coverage slice of Nirvana.
When I was a teenager, I used to visit SF all the time and even lived there for a while. I found this spot on Bakers Beach where I could sit, smoke and listen to music without ever being bothered.
To this day, I am most relaxed when sitting on the beach, near dusk, listening to some music.
I like to walk home from work or when I go out, I put on my iPod and just listen to some music and think. It's a 45min walk so it gives me time to think and it's also good excercise.
Layin in bed/In the Car/In the shower.
Laying on the bed staring at the ceiling droning out to music....underneath bridges....the bathroom, a sanctuary! ha
While sleeping, and showering.
in my Home, in the Dark and Quite...
....sometimes in My Coffin { 'YES', i Do Have a Full Sized Coffin, I sleep in a lot, ~ oK ),.....
........sometimes sittin' in the MAIN Living room,
.....sometimes in the back bedroom w/ the Tv or Music playin'.....
My balcony early in the morning and late at night. It's so peaceful

i would love some time alone with my thoughts.
and a place to spend that time.
I am alone most of the time because of my thoughts. I do not not like to alone with my thoughts. I like to express my thoughts in hope of a miracle, that some people will understand and agree with me.
At the time of the sunrise or sunset
On the subway
Before sleeping
while taking a shower...
To be honest, at work, the only place where there isn't constant, inane, annoying chatter is the restroom stalls. I go even when I don't have to go. ::sigh::
Otherwise, I do feel refreshed and my mind clearer after I dance or work out.
More than anywhere else, out-of-the-way cafes work for me. Warm drinks, comfortable atmosphere, other people around but not interacting with me.
Up a in tree, the mountain, walking while listening to music, and upside down.
Usually out in the woods but sometimes that is not an option. The other night I actually ended up wandering around downtown Seattle since I had no where else to go but try not to do that too often Worcester since it's such a bad area.
I tend to do the most thinking either on the bus ride home or right before I fall asleep.
Of course, I tend to just blank out and stare at the walls sometimes too.
