New Friends, Old Friends, Big Mistakes
In an effort to make new friends, something I've not been very good at in the last three years, I went to a Reddit meetup at a bar in the city on the weekend and, hoy boy, was it an adventure!
As of now, I would like to claim that I succeeded in my mission and made new friends, had lots of laughs and got faaaaaaarrrr too drunk! I don't even remember getting home and that always terrifies me. But I was so scared going in to meet people that I just over did it. At least I now know that I don't need to be that scared anymore and they were really lovely people! Even the guy who spent lots of time following me around and patting my hair. That was an experience.
I'm really hoping to go to another meet up soon, and stay sober, haha. Hopefully they all like me sober, too! I spent yesterday recovering and getting lots of messages from people saying how good it was to meet me and how much fun we all had together and stuff, so I hope that it happens soon! One guy has been pushing for me to go and hang out with him, but I have a feeling he's after something that there's no way in hell he's getting, so noooo. If he keeps pushing, I have no problems with just deleting him.
Anyway, yay for Reddit!
