I always secrete ocular fluid at weddings

Yesterday was a wedding, and I told at least one person I was going to the reception. Then I skipped out after the ceremony. Sorry. I'm just really awkward at wedding receptions.

From what I can tell there are two main things at wedding receptions (three if there's an open bar)--eating and dancing. As I've mentioned before, I can't eat around large groups. I don't dance, either. And even with the possible third thing, I don't often drink. So I end up as someone who just sits at the table off in the corner.

And of course, the one wedding reception that anyone who actually reads this may have seen me at, I simply took off when I wanted to leave. It's my standard party trick--one minute, I'm sitting awkwardly in the corner, the next minute I'm three blocks away. If parties are outside of walking distance from home, I don't like to go. So yeah, I'm awkward and a bit of a loner at parties/receptions. Sorry again.
