I, too, would rather be happy than interesting (though I certainly don't write as well as you do so my blog has never been *that* interesting!) but I agree with the person who said it's possible to be both. Best of luck with the job hunt! Well I don’t know you IRL but I’ve enjoyed reading your blog.

The post is more reflective about how I feel overall about the current state of my social situation. Clearly no good can come of sitting at home all day most days.

I was fairly disappointed, but those I talked to later said the evening had been really fun. I kinda thought they were being polite. I came to your party just past, and let me tell you honestly: it was totally worth coming. Those who didn't come, missed out. Reading this gave me an interesting insight: you were disappointed because the party wasn't what you were expecting, but I came to your party not expecting anything, and was pleased at what I found. Mull that. BTW, say hi to Scott, Brook, Laura and girl-who-died-and-came-back for me! TTFN Travis I also had a party, about two months ago, and the turn out was significantly smaller than I expected.

I felt bad about changing my rsvp that day. Unfortunately, I was under the weather -- I was very much looking forward to catching up with you guys. For the record: I think the fact that you live a decent life makes you a decent friend, and certainly an interesting one to talk to. Heya… I felt bad about changing my rsvp that day.

Sorry we had to leave early; it was fun while it lasted though! I think you can be both happy and interesting, and write well about both - or not, if that's what you choose. Your online audience might change or go away, but your friends won't. I know it was a busy weekend for a lot of people…try not to take it too personally!
