I don't suppose I know anyone near Philadelphia, do I? I don't think I do. I'm supposedly being sent there for a training thing in a couple of weeks. What I really need to do is to pretend that the other people in the class are friends I haven't met, yet. That rarely actually works for me, I'm very shy and also don't really like most people. What? Most people are either boring or annoying. That's why I prefer to preselect people I want to meet through social media like LJ/DW, where I can at least think we have something in common to talk about. ;) If I know you from here you're probably not boring to me. ;)

Completely unrelatedly, I know it would look horribly pretentious to take my back stretching roller with me, but I always miss it so much while I'm gone. NOT as much as I miss Eor, but a lot.

Uniformed moment... I thought I had myself all together, but was looking for my shoes, turned my head, and noticed that my left epaulette was hanging down, un-shoulderboarded. That would have been a great way to go to work.

i'm from the philly area, but not there now. but i know a lot of people there if you want some recommendations of people to hang out with if you have any free hangout time with your training.

Thanks for the offer, but I might possibly be even worse at meeting friends of friends. :) It's generally the done thing that classmates hang out, and it's true that if I can I should make connections with these people. Last class I hung out with my cousin, instead, and I probably should have given the classmates some time. It's also remotely possible that some of the same people might be there, although I suspect the quiet boy from Sai Pan will not be flown in for this one.
