New Year's Day

Jan 02, 2014 10:50

I felt like the lonely weird kid. We invited several people over for a feast of ribs, Mac n cheese, cornbread, collards, black eyed peas and pie. We started cooking at 6 am. One guest found out she had to work New Year's Day and just dropped her daughter off. Two families stayed home with a stomach flu. The last family showed up late and full because they went to a party beforehand. They stayed an hour and left their kids with me and went home. I know this isn't a reflection on me but man it brings out that insecure unhappy girl that I don't have to be anymore.
I'm afraid that this town is too small. Juneau was smaller, but populated with an incredible amount of advanced degrees and interesting people. I haven't really come across that many people here that I want to get to know and am often disappointed when I do. I'm not a snob. I am just having a hard time finding people who fit.
