My girlfriend had her Thetis show at her college last night. I am so fucking prod of her six years of school and she is just a month away from her BFA degree.
I got to meet all of her school pals which was fun but as always at things like this I felt so awkward. I really liked all the people I met and would like to hang out with them but, let's face it, both my girl and I are social misfits. Even in a fringe group of social misfits. I mean these are the type of people I'm most comfortable around ( the weird artsy type) and I still had moments where had no idea idea what to do with myself. I almost wished I still smoked so I would at lest had an excuse to step outside and get away for a minute. Instead I just ended up sitting in a very uncomfortable chair, eavesdropping on a conversation that I desperately wanted to join, wringing my hands because I was so anxiety ridden.
Still it was a pretty good night.
