Weird mental blocks
Earlier this week I had a drink with a new friend(not a date) in a bar. I know, what are the odds!? This particular bar and I have a history. I sincerely hope that bar isn't ruined for me because I like the spot. I hope that next time I'm there, because it's only a matter of time, I hope to not think the entire time how weird it is and instead can focus on having a good time. This can be done. I don't want to forget, that's dumb. I just don't want to lose this spot.
In other news, I watched the movie "Swingers" just in the nick of time. Now I already need to watch it again. Awkward, but tradition. I just hope I have the time this week, before something stupid happens.
Now that I've been here a year and a half, I'm starting to become socially active in meeting new friends. That feels nice. I'm hoping by the time I've been here 2 full years, I have the beginnings of a social circle that I didn't have prior. No offense to previous friends, but I recognize that I have relied on you too much to fill my social life. I need to be better about balancing entertaining myself, meeting people on my own and not neglecting old friends.
I've learned to appreciate chicken dumpling soup. I'm not sure how this happened. I didn't mean for it to happen. You see, I don't like soup. Not like a DISlike, but not a like either. But lately I've been having more of it. Maybe it's that I get free soup with many meals, so I feel obliged to try it. And since I'm hungry, trying it usually means the bowl is empty by the time the real food gets to me.
