Gala's and such...

I am neither shy nor skittish, however, walking into tonight’s event solo is a bit nerve racking. Don’t get me wrong- I can pull it off, (AKA)fake confidence, and am easily able to make friends with complete strangers (a gift I value greatly). Nonetheless it is a bit daunting when nearly everyone else you know that is going has a date and/or spouse. It’s at these particular moments that I wish I were still married- a dependable, built in date you can count on to be there. Regardless, I am looking forward to tonight and welcome any adventures it might bring about- plus at least I have my masquerade mask to hide behind ^-^
