Robert,
You come across as perfectly normal to me. And you certainly are not completely anti-social as evidenced by your chattiness. That is, unless you are glued to your smartphone in the presence of others but I doubt that is your MO.
Call it anti-social if you will but one reason boaters like to get out on the water is because it affords a respite from the landbound masses and many of their rules. Anyway, that's one of the main reasons I like to get "out there" and also why I prefer countrysides over cities.
You know as well as anyone humankind's inate will to keep on truckin' in the face of adversity. Despite some doors in life having been closed to me, there are so many other doors to open and corridors to explore. I am flourishing in Thailand on much, much less means.
Thank you for the good wishes and the feeling is mutual. Peace and love to you, too, brother.
Rex
PS - What's normal, anyways?
