I just got back from the swearing in of the new senators in Lansing. There was a bunch of BS and schmoozing going on, and I personally hate it - I am a shy gal by nature :
If someone is sitting next to me I will talk to them or whatever, but I am not into kissing ass (unless you buy me a drink first
) so I find it hard to just go up to someone and start a conversation when I have no idea who they are, what they do, etc. It would be different if I heard them speak about a project or something, but doing it blindly is hard for me.
How 'bout you all? It seems most of the planner's I met are very outgoing who have no problem shooting the breeze with strangers. What about at conferences and seminars, bars, etc.? Have you been able to combat this shyness, if so how? If not, go to Denver so I have someone to talk to
