I haven't done anything social outside of my and my sweetie's household for quite a long time. The stasis field that seems to be around my company has been affecting the rest of my life as well.
I was pointed at the Seattle Polyamory Meetup Group and decided to go--you could even say I was strongly encouraged to go This group actually draws people from three (significantly-overlapping) sources...the Sea-Poly email list, The LJ community seattlepoly, and the meetup group. I've been a member of Sea-Poly for years, but haven't been keeping track of it lately. Interestingly, in meetup.com, there are 279 polyamory meetup groups...Seattle's is the first of them.
Of the 10 of us there, 9 have LJ accounts. There were 3 people whom I didn't already know to some extent. For the most part I sat there quietly.
There were a couple of conversations I was able to add some small comments on, but not that much--the topics just didn't flow to things I knew much about.
