Day 133

I just went to a baby shower for the sweetest lady.  What's not so sweet is that I put my foot in my mouth 37.5 times or thereabouts.  I don't do small talk very well and invariably if I get a little nervous something inappropriate or ho ho rather than ha ha comes out.  Ya.  In other news, I am struggling to write.  There's a little local writing contest our city is doing for a short story of 3,000 words or less and I may do it with my friend M so that it forces us to keep fighting the good fight in which I mean me against the words and the fact that they aren't coming out.
