Had an espresso shot at 4pm and was completely unprepared to run into an old coworker but I ran with it and how funny are these random moments

I have posted many times about my Friday adventures to the cafe. As I am trying to learn to take myself out on dates, I also am trying to make some friends and acquaintances along the way. I’m trying to develop a sense of community for myself outside of home and work.
Yesterday I had a lovely time drawing at the cafe and I had a conversation with the older man who was sitting next to me. I think he’s been there once before but this time he was asking me about my art. I learned that he used to make art as well. It was a really nice little chat and it really made me feel alive !!! :) I hope to have more instances like this in the future <3

Even if it's not received well. I spent most of my life feeling awkward around other people (and still sometimes do) but I love chatting it up with a stranger. Giving a compliment, cracking a joke. An internet acquaintance is in Boston? Let's go get a drink! Making friends this way proves something to a younger, more shy version of myself.
Smiled and said hello to Bimh who works at the post office earlier because last week we had a nice conversation.

I love an ephemeral chat with a stranger. The kind where you both silently acknowledge it's situational, but it's nice to just make each others' company a pleasant way to pass the time for that fleeting moment. I hardly initiate the conversation these days (I think the pandemic knocked me back a few rungs on the social confidence ladder), but I'm always open to it. It's a good alternative to drifting through life scrolling on a phone in public, and for someone like me, it's always a benefit to be shaken out of your over-analytical thought factory. The only time I'm not shy is when I see someone with a film camera - then I go full motor-mouth.

Like I am sometimes haunted by thoughts and thinking too much can be low key scary
