social life

[cjsmith]

Here are a few things I notice.

- anyone who's interested in spending time with me becomes less interested once they get to know me
- the people who know me best have the least time to spend with me
- if I stop reaching out and making invitations, I stop seeing anyone (there's one exception here)

What that tells me is either a) I'm going mad, and imagining observable facts, or b) I do not provide value. (Long term, that is. Short term -- people who don't know me yet -- I think people like the tits. But long term, they see what else comes with, and it's no longer a net win.)

I have to learn how to be a net win, how to provide better value for time spent.

'Tis true that I don't attend many local events. Yeah. I can imagine seeming hard-to-get-to-know. I'd never thought of that before, though.

Range time sounds cool. Where do you go for same? I'd love to hear more about your survival training.

Er, hate to disillusion you, but I don't own an airplane. I shore do wish I did! [mutter mutter stock price.] But I can sometimes wangle rides for friends in rfrench's plane. (I'm not qualified to fly that one myself.) *dreamy sigh* ah, airplanes!
