I really need to get out more often.

I was in something of a funk today until I got a call out of the blue from V and PJ, in from NZ. It was a great surprise and I'm hoping to get to see them again before they have to head back.

Later in the day there was the already planned get-together with JW from out of town. Four of us got together and hung out over dinner and drinks after the two hour walk JW and I took after his interview.

All in all I'm feeling very energized and on top of things after socializing. Which is good because Thursday to Sunday is pretty much packed solid with social engagements...

I find myself doling out a lot of hugs over IM.

I don't think this is a bad thing, just something I'm noticing. More than in real life, actually.

Another reason I should get out more.
