    As an introvert who greatly prefers small gatherings, I think it's very poor form to invite someone to meet up with you, only to find out LATER, after you've said yes, that additional people were also invited?!! 😖

    This hits extra hard as a covid-aware person because I can insist on some precautions when it's just me and them - e.g., an outdoor venue - but when it's a whole group, I can't just overrule the group's preference.

    I am now trying to strategically plan my last-minute cancellation... Generally, the best option for backing out after already committing is to feign illness, but I HATE how saying I or my husband is sick undermines our ability to show that masking actually works to prevent illness! 🤦🏻‍♀️

  5. I swear to God, every time I leave the house - whether it's to go shopping or for a medical appointment or a social outing - as soon as I come home, I immediately change into my comfy "home clothes" and am so relieved to think, "Thank goodness I don't have to go out again until [whenever]!!!" 😅

  13. Unable to come up with a valid excuse in time, stay-at-home Millie ends up dragged to a social event by outgoing Vivian:

    Hopefully it wouldn't last long, Millie thought. She was looking forward to getting back to her place and continuing her game of Final Fantasy X, if she wasn't too tired. She hoped she wasn't too tired. Nothing was more depressing than getting home and not having the energy to be lazy. #introvert

  21. About me: I'm a person alive in this strange time. This pinned intro post will evolve. It is an ongoing unfinished project.. like me

    I will never use A.I. for creating anything. The creators of A.I. can't say the same thing about human creativity. They steal it from us, feed it to their A.I., and then sell it back to us as "intelligence"

  29. Thankful – Day 10 of 365

    Today, I am thankful for connection. I am an introvert, and I get anxious in social situations. So, I avoid them. I’d rather read a book in a crowded room than talk to a stranger. My brother sent me this video the other day. I cried. It reminded me that we are all connected. There is always something that we share in common with a “stranger.” Imagine what it would be like to be surrounded by all of your blog followers in one room. Oh, what stories we could tell! Why not discover the threads that tie us together and make a new friend?

  30. I hate working the phones. Really hate it. It became part of my job 5 or 6 years ago, and I'm still pissed off about it.

    The thing I hate worse though, is meetings.

    Today, I've been scheduled on the phone desk at the same time as the Steering Committee meeting.

    I'm actually relieved to be on the phones.

  34. craving Baskin Robbin’s Gold Medal ice cream, I told the very stoned guy behind the counter, “1 scoop in a cup, please” he then had to ask me twice what I wanted. He proceeded to present to me 1 scoop of Chocolate. “My man, you are supposed to give me what I’m craving, not what you are craving” I thought to myself. I took the Chocolate bc #introvert. Still good. Probably 3rd favorite anyway.
