Believe it or not I *can* be an introvert.
Not usually, but I can.
F2Fs don't count because not only do I feel I know most of youse guys, but there is usually copious amounts of Liquid I Love You, Man.
But I have had those moments at F2Fs where something in your hind-brain goes "too many people, no space, NO AIR, TOO LOUD, TOO MANY FUCKING PEOPLE RUN RUN RUN AAAAIIIIIEEEEE!!!"
But then I go have some more Liquid I Love You, Man and get over it. Which may not work for everyone.
Sometimes, this results in stripey-tights, so don't try this at work.
F2Fs are kind of a special case, for me anyway.
And anyway, while we may all be running off to hide out heads under the covers every so often, we're not doing it at the same time, so the average room density doesn't change all that much.

Very few of you have ever seen me go into Convention Mode, which is something I did while working for WotC. The first time Pete ever witnessed it, he was a little freaked out.
*Someone(s)* has to be behind the WHO IS AWESOME??? WE ARE AWESOME!!!!!! LET US DANCE AND DRINK AND GROPE AND DANCE SOME MORE AND CONGREGATE IN LARGE PACKS AND DID I MENTION GROPE AND WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Again, gregarious introvert who is happy and relaxed among people she knows. Okay, maybe less "relaxed" and more "Tigger on speed AND ecstasy", but you get the drift.
But! I also did stay at my own place for most of the SFF2F, just because I knew I'd need my cave.

There's that, too.
Tep, I don't know if I ever said exactly how sorry I was that I invaded your space at SFF2F. That's kind of stuck with me, and I feel awful for making you so uncomfortable.

Personally, I always attribute this to overcompensation. And liquid "I Love You Man". And the fact that in my heart I'm a little bit of a slut and have the opportunity to act on it for once.
Once? I'd buy "Once that week."
Once a year. It's an annual sugar and alcohol buzz that results in half y'alls tongues in my mouth.
Half? *w*
Smooch. You know I love ya babe.
I'm going in for my first ever acupuncture session in a little bit. I'm nervous and excited!
Oooo! I want a full report! I want to try this for back/pain issues and for allergy issues, but so spendy everywhere I've looked. Need more positive feedback to get my ass in gear. Also, good luck!
Friday. I can sleep in tomorrow.
Sing it, Sister.
Comcast is the debbil. It went offline for no apparent reason other than it could for a couple of hours this morning. Now, it wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that they telemarketed me last night, asking if I wanted to bundle my cable internet with their phone service, would it?
One of the reasond why Caller ID is a gift of the gods. I screened a call from AT&T just last night. Even though I'm interested in their service, I'm not down with some telemarketer "YOU MUST ACT NOW"ing me when I've just gotten home from work and am trying to unwind, thankyewverymuch.
Oh, man. I have SO been there with my ex-FAC. Wanting downtime or personal space was selfish and therefore sinful and -- "But don't you value what THE LORD values??? Why *wouldn't* you want to do what THE LORD values????"
If either of you were still involved with your FAC's, I wwould say this is where you invoke the Oh-So-Powerful, "I've been trying to have my 'Quiet Time'." Not that I'm endorsing using God as an excuse, but seriously, I never had anyone from church not respect a need for Alone Time. (perhaps this is something to do with the fact that I'm still involved with said churches, rather than seeing them in my rearview mirror. Hmmm...)
Also, started my scarf for the Ravelympics.
Que es?

Dude. Words to live by.
