So, today I find myself with an unusual dilemma. There is no homework assignment that absolutely must be completed now, and I don't have the kids until tomorrow morning. Now, generally, this would sound like heaven, as I have an entire day to relax and do what I want. Thing is, more and more lately, what I've been wanting lately is to get out of the house, to meet people, maybe develop a social life.
The issue is, it's been so long since I've had any kind of social life, I have no idea where to go to actually meet people. The majority of the people in my classes are a decade younger than me. I could go to some of the local bars, but without someone to go with, I would be stuck drinking overpriced soda, as I would have to drive myself.
I've been trying to get out and at least go have something to eat at St. Louis Bread Company, where at least I would be among other people while I check emails. Not that it does much good, other than getting me out of the house.
Another hurdle I have right now is that my car is broken, so I can't just get in the car to go on my own. It's driving me stir crazy because, even if I spend most of my time happily amusing myself at home, I at least had the option of going somewhere if I wanted. Now, I have to ask for someone to give me a ride. I hate it. I miss having the freedom to go if I so chose.
