be more social

I’m so glad I went. It reminded me of just how great my small circle of friends are. Mac & cheese, crawfish, ribs, deep fried bacon (because everything’s better with bacon), and beer. I had one of the above, because bacon, once again, makes everything better ;)

I’ll be at a Wine Tasting on April 19th, and then on the 26th, a friend of mine is hosting a party. I’m being social…just enough to not be completely anti-social. Because I like my quiet time.

Starting this past Thursday, I was out and about every day until Sunday. This is a stretch for me. I realized I’m good at meeting people, but not so great at maintaining conversation. I clam up for no apparent reason. Despite that, I had a wonderful time, met a LOT of new people, and became an adopted regular at a local watering hole.

Took ourladyofguadalupe's advice and avoided the moonpies and king cakes, but had a great time with some ceviche and peach ginger margaritas. Oooooh, and Bacardi gold and diet coke? Heaven.

Being social, yes. Mardi Gras parades. Loot to be had. Fun times. Social. I’m on my way. The true test is if I keep it up after Mardi Gras. Only then can I say I actually did this.
