#89: Be social
"89. Have guests over at least 4 times a year. Not always to watch TV, although special events like gymnastics meets are okay. (This is a general “be social” type thing.)"
This goal was put into the list because when the 1001 days started I had moved into my own non-roomated place for the first time. And I knew my introvert tendencies could lead me into more hermit-like bahavior. That didn't happen. In fact, I probably socialize more now. Part of that is copious amounts of free time lately (remember: no job), but some of it is also that having my own space to retreat into makes me more able to deal with larger groups of people. I still prefer parties with 6 or so friends rather than 30 strangers, but I'll try the latter knowing that I can have plenty of alone time to recharge afterwards.

If you ever want to road trip out to Norman - one of the Meccas of American Gymnastics, let me know. I'm only 2 hours north of there.
