This is the second time I'll be going to see them for my birthday, incidentally. I've probably seen them three or four times at least. Tickets are $20 this time, though, which makes me unhappy.


By the way, is there now or have their ever been forumpeoples from anywhere in Ontario besides Toronto, Waterloo, or Guelph?

I'm in Ottawa. Formerly London, I just moved here for school.

Blog thread,

A guy in my class today asked me to hang out with him and his roomies sometime in the next few weeks. This is kind of freaking me out. I've sat next to this guy for the last few months, and all I know about him is (a) He's a democrat, or at least, he's an Obama supporter (b) He does charity work sometimes, although it could be community service or the like and (c) He drives a truck. He's very clean cut, athletic, probably student government in high school. For whatever reason I'm suspecting he's a christian, an FCA type. He might think me a potential convert (I don't know why I think this, but it seems plausible to me) I don't know what to do. The guy seems nice enough, he doesn't seem like a bro, although the possibility is still there. But I'm being asked to jump into a social situation with a group of strangers. I'm pretty stiff when I'm out with my best friends. I have a feeling of impending doom. Something about this guy is sending off all sorts of red flags in the back of my mind.

Then again, in my history, some of the best people I know have given me red flags on first meeting.

Also, I just got done watching the second to last episode of the Shield. Holy shit this is going to be devastating.

ViolentDove:
Judging by a few of your previous posts, I think you should hang out with these guys... I mean, weren't you talking about wanting to improve your social skills with strangers? This would be a perfect opportunity. Making small talk and being comfortable in the presence of strangers is something that can improve with practice, or at least I've found it to be the case. I used to be completely inept at it, and gradually got better.

And hey, if they turn out to be christians, at least you can have a nice theological debate- no room for awkward silences there!
