Ugh.
Went to open mic night last night & saw a bunch of people I know - all musicians, or their SO's - and hung out with a few of them. Talked to Meg_D for a while (began with survivalist stuff, of all things!?) which somehow got us on the topic of cooking. I didn't know she was a chef before, apparently she's worked every position in the kitchen, which I think is pretty cool. I told her I do a little cooking, but want to learn more & she said I could ask her if I have any questions. She's such a cool gal - I'd been standing off on my own, as I usually do until I loosen up, and she invited me to come over & sit with her & her friends at the bar. Not sure why, but that surprised me. Anyway, she played a few songs for open mic, and then took off, but not before I got a big hug, which was the highlight of my evening (that's kind of sad in and of itself, isn't it!?).
I left shortly after that & stopped at Shakes, where I ran into a gal I had a date with several months ago. Cool girl, not my type at all, and has a couple kids, but interesting enough to hang out with for a bit. She was there with a friend (also not my type, but nice) and we decided to go to another venue. She wanted me to take them on the bike, but as I've not ridden two people on it yet (and neither of them are exactly petite), I offered to take her friend, since she'd already ridden with me before. Got to the other venue, had a drink, hung for a bit while they danced, and I took off after my drink. Got home & ended up talking to the waitress from Pete's on facespace for a while, then crashed out.
I feel like shit this morning, and aside from hanging with Meg_D, I could have done without the entire evening. I don't want to make a definitive statement, because I tend to change my mind quite a bit, but I'm getting to the point where I'm thinking I need to commit myself to only going out when one of my friends' bands are playing, and to only drink sodas. Maybe I can train myself to be open & outgoing without drinking? I doubt it, but it's really not healthy for me, not to mention how expensive it is, and it doesn't do anything for improving my life, aside from letting me open up enough to socialize for a few hours.
