Knocked Up with strangers

Since I have gotten settled in, I decided I needed to meet people. I have been accomplishing this through www.meetup.com. It's a web site where you can create or join a group for pretty much anything in your area. So far I'm in 3- and one of the groups decided to do dinner at Old Chicago, then go see the movie Knocked Up. Dinner was preety good- 4 of us split a large pizza that was super tasty, I don't know about the other 3 people because they were at the other end of the table and I didn't get a chance to speak with them very much.

I really hit it off with a lady from Longmont- we had a way cool discussion about astrology and positive thinking. We're supposed to get together next Saturday...YAY!

As a person who doesn't watch movies that much, let me just say I really enjoyed the movie- I laughed throughout the entire thing!


Tonight I went to another meetup, but I had been to this particular group before and was pretty familiar with everyone. I'm so glad I have been able to get out of the house! If I'm alone too long I tend to think too much and get kind of depressed.

So, I have started meeting people- my next big goal is to go to an open mic...I haven't done one in months! Not since I left Nac:(

I have two other main goals- one is to order some plan tickets to visit my family in Illinois, the other is to trade in my truck for something smaller and more fuel efficient...I'm thinking a Jeep!

I know what your thinking- Jeeps aren't THAT fuel efficient...but they're better than what my truck is!!!!

~blessed be~
