Hey, harry b.,
Good ole social anxiety. You seem to want to be with people, though. So, it isn't that you aren't socially oriented. Socially anxious or shy might describe it better.
Well, but you have a penchant, it seems, for finding interesting people, so maybe you don't have to say too much in a conversation anyway. Besides, people like people who listen well.
When Janice expressed concern about the gun, I took it to mean she read your post last night to be saying you would use it on yourself. I thought that at first, too, but then I wondered if you meant you would use it on your computer, Dirty Harry style.
That wouldn't be a good choice, either (if you shoot your computer, you couldn't come to babble to chat, for one thing), but not the same level of concern as your thinking of using it on yourself.
Can you clarify your remark about the gun? Just to make us feel safer that you are safe.
