I felt awkward at the work Christmas lunch party because of an impression I created because of something I said that doesn't encapsulate all of me, but I feel could have been interpreted that way. I felt so awkward, I left the lunch, went out to my car intending to do take out somewhere, then said to myself, NO, Meg, march yourself right back in there and grab some grub. So, I did, and it was ok, and more people were gone, and it didn't feel as pressurized.

I tell myself I don't mind too much because over familiarity bothers me too, especially when I don't know people well and in a situation in which there may be good reasons to be a bit more guarded, as in a work situation. Idk.
