Socially Awkward Sunday

Monday April 11 2005
11:10am EDT

Ugh, I so do NOT want to be here right now. At least I have
a meeting at 1pm to break the day up.

Ok, so Saturday I left at 8pm and got home around 10:30.
Jon's friends were still over, so I just went right
upstairs and tried to go to bed. Had trouble sleeping...
not sure why. I've been having trouble for a few weeks. So
Sunday Jon and I just cuddled in bed, it was really sweet
actually. We got up and got ready to go to this park that's
about 15 minutes away. His friends were throwing a barbecue
and Frisbee Golf tournament... yeah. So, anyway, Jon
invited Jamie and Kelly and the babe to join us. We got
there and I was totally self conscious. Beautiful hip
girls, tons of energy... ugh. I just awkwardly followed Jon
around until Jamie and Kelly arrived. Jon really wants us
to start hanging around with his friend Russ and his wife
Beth. They've done tons of Phish, and he really likes Russ,
so he thinks we'd all have fun together. Beth seems like
fun, she's totally high energy and maybe way too cool for
me. I wish I could feel comfortable... but we only really
talked to them for a bit, so I need to hold back on making
a judgement call.

So Jamie and Kelly and the kid arrived. We didn't realize
how into Frisbee Golf these folks are -- the park has a
Frolf course, and they all have their special frisbees (you
can't use regular frisbees), and since the course was not
baby stroller accessible, we stayed back and just talked
with Jamie and Kelly. I think Jon felt really awkward,
because not 20 minutes after J&K arrived, the rest of the
crew packed all their shit up and left to play Frisbee
Golf. Anyway, I was happy with that because it meant I
didn't have to try to socialize with people who I feel
inferior to. :) We're going to have dinner with Russ and
Beth (and J&K) on the 22nd when we go into the city to see
Family Guy live. So yay.

We stayed til 5pm or so.. it was such a nice day out. Then
we all left. Jon and I stopped and got some ice cream and
then we went home. I talked to my mom, told her about
Saturday and the new boyfriend, then Jon and I watched some
Family Guy -- J&K let us borrow the last DVD, since the one
from Netflix was all scratched. Yay. Oh, and I might be
scoring some tickets to Trey... one for the first night and
possibly two for the second night. People from my message
board coming through for me! Whee!

So I had trouble sleeping again last night. So I'm totally
not in a motivated mood today. It sucks. I'm really
starting to feel very unhappy with the case management part
of my job. I think I'll leave a message for the HR lady to
find out what's going on with The Position. Ugh.

That's it for now. Listening to Keller Williams, Home. Got
this album last week, it's not as uptempo as Laugh. I like
it though.
