or volunteer at an animals rescue or shelter..you'll be doing some very needed work saving animals and meeting some incredible people too (and i gotta tell you basset rescues have some really cool and fun rescue social events...a parade in nj each spring with 600+ bassets...on the boardwalk where thousands come out to see and be seen...and that's just the start of the social season)

The dog park is someplace I go to on a regular basis. At least 4 times a week. Its winter now and we still go as long as the temps. are above 15 degrees. At times I don't know who has more fun, me or my dogs! LOL
I do talk to people while I'm there and I do see the same people on a regular basis that I chat with. But its not much more than small talk. Hi, how's it going today? or we chat about the crazy stuff our dogs are doing. I enjoy it. And I usually leave the park feeling much better than when I arrived. I am thinking that I should look into helping out at a shelter like you suggested. It's something I've been saying for a long time. Working with animals is something I've always wanted to do. They always put a smile on my face. Maybe it will help find someone I can become friends with.
