Y'know, I think it may not just be that I am lower social than normal (although I still think I am, a bit), and may actually be that most of the things I tried to drop in on for social groups got bigger than I can handle. Diesel socials are the example I can most easily come up with.

And, the fact that there is no longer a poly boston discussion group (which I unfortunately cannot sanely host, or I'd try) probably also factors in; those tended to be smaller, and involve purpose and intentionally interesting conversations. Of course, I don't know how interesting I would find most general purpose poly discussion groups at this point, since that is much of why I don't read alt.poly much anymore...

Mostly, I think I'm just antsy/bored right now because I thought (ok, hoped, since it was uncertain) that I'd have a roommate tonight. But movers and schedule delays means tomorrow. So there are no people, and I thought there would be.

Certainly, part of it is lack of roommate. Funny how having roommates makes me more social, generally. Well, presuming they are people I actively want as roommates... I have _no_ idea what I'm going to do when this soon-to-be-roommate moves out (as expected, in 6 months). Most of the people I want to live with don't want to live this far out! Ah, well. Deal with that when I get to it, I guess.

Meh.

Funny how it was cold (I had a sweater on) this morning, and now I'm hot/sticky/humid. Ah, September... ;)

I hear ya! I know it's incredibly easy to crawl into a shell and stay there when there's nobody in the house to interact with. I have to make a conscious effort to get out and connect with people.

And, like you, I tend to vastly prefer small groups to mega-gatherings. Never been to Diesel, don't know what that's like. I did have second thoughts about attending S&R's end-of-summer party for just that reason, though...

Heh. Everything's relative. You live far out? It's pretty far in for me :)
