Invitation

Alex just called me up, to go to InterTown Pub and have drinks. I declined, saying that I wanted to stay home and work.

I keep talking about being more social, but when it comes down to it… I find myself staying at home. I’m wondering if I’m being overly analytical, measuring out my future plans against some social-to-alone ratio. Tomorrow night, there’s a dinner for the IT folks after work. Thursday, there’s a company-wide holiday party, where all of Q101 is going out bowling and drinking for several hours. And then on Friday, I head off to Columbus for a few days, returning on Sunday.

Understandably, I’m wary about going out tonight. But at the same time, I haven’t seen Alex or Stu or Rob or Gretchen or Kent or Christine or a whole shitload of people, in a really, really long time. I know I need to get out more. I know this. I know this.
