Social Caterpillar

When I used to spend my days at work surrounded by hundreds of people, the last thing I wanted to do in my free time was socialize. Things are different now that I'm home alone all day. One of my former colleagues invited us to a happy hour on Friday evening, and not only was I willing to go out and see people, but I was actually looking forward to it.  

Heidi and I planned on making a polite appearance, but we ended up staying at least two hours later than we expected, and I really enjoyed the gathering. 

As an introvert, I have long understood that spending too much time in a crowd can be draining, but it wasn't until recently that I realized that spending too much time alone is not ideal either, even for me.

Look out, world!
