For the most part, last night was a good night. After work, i began my stint for running sound at the local civic theatre, which was a little nerve-racking, but i did pretty well. I have a few things i need to iron out regarding cues, but as my mentor said... the audience won't know if i miss one.

So, again, i need to step out of myself to succeed. Is anyone else beginning to sense a theme? ;^)

I've been playing phone tag with the local dance studio that teaches ballroom dancing. I'm it now, because they left a message while i was in production.

After the show, i decided to unwind... so i went to Target, picked up my one thing, and then headed to the gym.

I'm very pleased with what i'm starting to see at the gym... both the ladies and myself! =^)

However, i wasn't quite up for conversing last night, so i didn't talk to any of the girls there. I wasn't rude... just focused. In that respect, nights like last night have been pretty rare. I hadn't revisited my anti-social tendencies yet this year.

That didn't last long, i ended up at my favorite club in town and the bartender suggested the nightly special: the Shaker martini.

Oh my God! Those things don't taste of alcohol at all... it's like drinking punch at a party, and they went down as fast as party punch too!

There was also a new waitress at the club, so i made my first approach of the evening. The club was very slow, which was both a plus and a minus. The downside was that there weren't any women there to talk to. The bonus was making S's acquaintance.

I think we talked for a couple of hours... maybe a bit longer. While i was there, though, i received a call from a friend who said he was going to another bar: which always is hopping on Thursday nights.

He now owes me five bucks... because he wasn't there and even though i arrived ten minutes before last call i had to pay the cover.

It was late enough in the evening that there weren't any groups of ladies to talk to... they all seemed to be talking to men already, which is an easier situation to handle if i know at least someone there.

Then i saw A across the room. She had that look of trying to place me, and then looked away. Since i hadn't seen her for a while, i had to do a double take myself. The second time our eyes met, she still didn't recognize me.

So, i approached her. As soon as i did that, i could see the light bulb come on! She said i look so different, plus i dress better than i used to.

It's pretty unbelievable how easy it has become for me to approach women. Granted, i haven't really tested myself yet against just anyone... but i'm getting there. Besides knowing girls in the club give me someone to instantly talk to and build up some value.

I think i'm starting to figure it all out! And this is now a bit long... so i'll have to write more later.

What i'm listening to:
