Gosh, as of yesterday afternoon, I had finally run out of holiday evites. I thought I was in for a dry spell, but I just received my 3rd evite this afternoon for January events. It's interesting, as I decided today that this will be the Year of Doing Stuff Alone, since I don't appear to have the social draw that I once had and I'm feeling bitter and resentful about it (would anyone like any of the treats I bought the other day for the NYE gathering that no one came to? my co-workers aren't obliging me as quickly as I'd like them to).

But never mind that. It's about learning to enjoy things alone, and not always needing someone there to share it, right? As my first act, I bought a ticket to see The Barber of Seville in a few weeks. I'm feeling good about this one.

Maybe one day I'll learn to go see a movie by myself. But I'm working my way up to that.
