So we had a change of venue for class tonight, which is always horrendously awkward for me, because then I have to figure out what to do with myself all over again, after I've already gotten used to one pattern of behavior. However, this turned out to be pretty good. It was a lecture by someone in our field, so it was in kind of a function room. A woman I thought didn't like me offered me a seat next to her, and we ended up having a pretty nice conversation. You never know how things are going to turn out.
