I never realized just how much of a homebody I’d become as a married woman.  My ex, while a nice guy for most of our marriage, didn’t enjoy the company of others.  I do.

Tonight, Midalah, Roo and I went out with one of my coworkers and his partner.  We had a geat time.  We ate Vietnamese food, had our accents laughed at (mine’s horrible!), I drank a durian shake and we enjoyed a nice meal together.

Tomorrow night, Midalah and I are going to find a Halloween party in the city while Roo goes to one with her friends.  Last weekend, she and I met another friend from an online forum we belong to and had an awesome dinner at a local restaurant.

I don’t think I’ve ever connected so much with people locally. It’s nice! It’s something I really haven’t done before.  I’m enjoying it.
