Here in Connecticut, things are not going too well on the socialization front. I'm afraid we lost our ability to mix well once we got married. Consider this conversation we had over fast food last night:
K: Those people look nice. We could be friends with them... Try to spill something on them on the way out.
M: Our clumsiness could be our ticket in!
K: I bet those spilly people in the Pasta Pro commercial have tons of friends.
How do you make friends?

Well it works for me, anyway.

Posted by: Marc on 22 Feb 2003 at 9:49 AMWe feel your pain. Things were like this for us in S'pore for a LONG time. We finally ended up meeting a friend of a blog friend and now we have people to play with.
My best friend, Karen, and her husband, Tom, live in Hartford. Is that near you guys?
Hartford is about an hour away. Not stop-by-for-dinner distance, but maybe meet-halfway-for-?? distance. :)
