Is how I felt tonight at bi coffee... barely able to put coherent sentences together. Of course, only getting 3 hours of sleep last night probably didn't help... and when I'm around certain people who were there tonight, I have to work at not going all deer-in-the-headlights-unable-to move anyway...

So, I managed to sit next to [livejournal.com profile] cjsmith for a half hour without realizing it, while droning on about metal alloys and vague relationship angst until [livejournal.com profile] sinboy wandered off and poor [livejournal.com profile] clairaide was looking at her dress and the coffee table. Then wandering around, discovering [livejournal.com profile] gs and [livejournal.com profile] cjsmith just as they were leaving ( they looked uneasy), then stepping on [livejournal.com profile] redhawke's foot while talking to a guy whose name I didn't catch. Capping the evening off by misinterpreting [livejournal.com profile] hopeforyou in the worst possible way and probably offending her. At least I left [livejournal.com profile] joedecker mercifully alone, I'd have probably spilled coffee on him. And I managed to interact with [livejournal.com profile] the_ogre without being silly, boring or klutzy. I think...

(shaking head) what a half-hour... I should have skipped the event. Aargh. Anyone that saw me there would do me a service by hitting their own mental "erase" button and forgetting that I put in an appearance.

This followed an evening at Lori's, waiting in vain for her ex-husband to come by and pick up his things (we were there to give Lori companionship-under-stress).

And the finishing touch... looking down, I just noticed that my fly has been unzipped all evening. Not that that is necessarily bad at bi coffee (wry smile)... I just keep expecting to wake up. Instead, I'm going to bed...

Well, I wasn't there... but I know (very well) how sometimes one can feel that one has been a complete goon, and later be surprised to hear others say that one was actually just fine. One... feh. Anyway. I wish I could have been there. :)

Spot-on, that's nicely put.

One... feh

Methinks that there was a story, waiting to be let out... I'll have to remember to ask you someday (smile).

I wish you could have been there too, not to rescue me from fuzzy-headedness but because I'd like to meet you someday ;-).
