You don't have to be in large crowds to effectively network. Just chatting with people you know could lead to opportunities (see my hair dresser example).
Kaylee: Captain seem a little funny to you at breakfast this morning? Wash: Come on, Kaylee. We all know I'm the funny one.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
"Just chatting" is incredibly draining for me unless I know the other person well. It's not easy, or fun.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Twenty Years Ago: World Trade Center Bombing
Wow, 20 years ago.
It seems like that World Trade Center bombing has been largely forgotten after 9/11.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Then you can identify any connectors you already know, and just stay in touch with them. I mean, assuming you are interested in being introduced to new people or hearing about job openings, etc. I know a couple of people who know EVERYONE, and that's how I met half of everyone. In my field in NYC, anyway. I really don't talk to strangers.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Okay, I successfully delaminated one of the two fretboards. The other one I have finished sanding down to correct its error. This one I am now just waiting on it to dry to see if we can't get a better shape.

I remember that day. Stephen worked on Wall Street, and I was home with Jake, who was just two.

So it's been snowing like a mofo for the last 45 minutes here in Highland Park. What's it doing in Chicago? Still rain there?
Snow coming down hard now, but I don't know if it's sticking yet.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.
Be careful getting home, tommyrot.
