This weekend I was telling my mom about an awkward incident at the gym. While I was running, a guy was trying to catch my attention. I've seen him there before, we've ran side by side a few times, but that day he purposefully (I think, at least) came over to talk. Being the wonderful socializer I am, I kept running. Even through my break. And avoiding eye contact. UGHHH. I'm cringing just remembering it. And do you know what's silly? I have an easier time talking to patients, complete strangers, while giving them a shower. FOR THE LOVE OF PETE, I think I'm inept at life sometimes. Mom joked that I will be one of those crazy cat ladies, living alone with 20 cats, a huge library of book, deciding to gray naturally. Sadly, that COULD HAPPEN AT THIS RATE! Oh dear, oh dear. I need to work on this.
Tonight I'm going to a different small-group bible study. Through reviving old connections, I managed to find a group that meets on Sunday nights in Edmonton. So maybe this is my chance! To talk to strangers and fight-off my 'crazy cat lady' future. Wish me luck!
Cheers!
