Oh yeah and my boyfriend wouldn't be going to either so I wouldn't have anybody to hide behind (or an excuse to not talk to anyone else).

That's a good question. I seem to do well with one or two other people, with at least one being someone I know - though if the boyfriend is there, I will always hide behind him and avoid interacting with others. So sometimes it's better that he's not there. I guess I am least awkward in a small group of people with one or two that I know, that will find me funny and be okay with me being mostly quiet. This seems to be somewhat hard to find, though.
The Seldom Killer:
Hmm, I should have posed that a little better really.
What would you like to be doing in a social situation. Drinking, chilling, baking, throwing horseshoes, riding rollercoasters, all of the above, etc... ?
Once you've got your end result sorted out, reverse engineer from there.
nekowafer:
Oh, I see. I don't really have a preferred venue - anything relaxing where I am not required to interact if I don't want to. Like I don't like playing games with a group of people but sitting around at a coffee shop somewhere is fine. I am trying to find more people to hang out with but I have a pathetically small group of friends, and no car. Which is part of why I'd feel bad turning these things down.

We had this dude from South Africa come to open mic last night. He played and sang traditional stuff on the djembe. And I swear to god, I've never heard that bar be that quiet before. He had everybody at a complete standstill to listen. I have NEVER SEEN THAT at open mic before and I think it's just about the coolest thing that's happened the whole time I've been going.
Last night was a great night for newcomers, as it turned out. Had some dude named Jeff come up. He played and sang, and it was some of the best stuff I've heard there in a long time. The guy who drummed for him turned out to be the brother of a friend of mine, so that was cool to finally meet him. I'd heard a lot about him and now we're gonna start trying to get a band together.
Also, I woke up to the news about Egypt this morning, and so I'm in a really good mood. The last few years haven't really done much to give people hope that things can change for the better, so I'm really glad things worked out.

Snubbed by a computer again. Second job I've applied for in a row with the National Park Service where they have ignored my application before it was ever even seen by a human being. Trying not to cry at my desk at my shitty ass current job.
