>Hi Gordon,

Hi Beth

> In other words, the other night I found myself in a "night club" =
setting, which I'd never been in, and I felt powerless to move.  I found =
just how bad I am, in a darkened room.  I had to have two people walk on =
each side of me going in and out.  Anyone that saw me probably thought I =
was drunk.  It's the little stupid things in life that really bug =
me...........
<

Hmm - what about a wheel-chair ?

- Hmm - as far as being drunk,  - Ive only gotten drunk once - bout 2-3 =
yrs ago..

- The best thing about CP - no one knows the difference :-) (unless theyre =
'close friends).

In my life right now (previous post) - i mentioned :-
"- Right now Im only starting on one of my goals - so havnt got very far =
as yet - I'll keep you posted."

I currently have NO/ZIP/NADA/ZILCH/NIL/ZERO/NAUGHT (any words im missing =
??) social life...

Im thinking of going to a bar/pub/club etc.. in my local area - Never been =
to those places before..

I WAS going to go last weekend - But never got there - I walked about =
half-way to the area (we have a LOT of Restaurants / bars, take-aways, =
food-places in my area - I think its the food capital of the world..

anyway - where was I - oh yeah - I walked half way there (to the area =
where the bars/clubs/restaurants are) , & turned back...

This weekend / tonight - I'll re-think of going back & hopefully getting =
through the door. (even if im ugly, short, 'slighty' over-weight, and look =
like a frog. - PLUS - scared to death :-) )

<joking about the ugly bits>

- I dont expect anything to happen on the first time im there - But i just =
need to meet new people & get a social-life going..

Gordon..
