Telling myself that "meeting people" is my project is basically saying I'm not allowed to work on anything project at all. Kind of weird. Anyway, here is some brainstorming I did last night. I think the best approach would be to discover some kind of awesome community that I can be a part of but which only requires a commitment of doing something like once a month.
Shit you do with friends that will sadly never result in meeting a girl
-going to the movies
-skiing
-starcraft
-programming startup
Shit you do at some guy's house
-poker night
-settlers
-fun movie night (no one wants to do this)
-wine and cheese
community angle: Weekly repeating commitments
-salsa class
-beginner salsa class that you dont actually need
-yoga class
-
-volleyball league
-indoor soccer league?
-crossfit gym (probably...no)
-climbing class
-book club...bleh (monthly though, so thats a plus)
community angle: no weekly commitment
-climbing
-couch surving community...meh
-teaching (vulnerable to jailbait)
-hm....blues dancing? They are really nerdy though
-are there like...clubs where authors hang out? Or are we all supposed to be antisocial book nerds?
Completely Passive
-reading at coffee shop
-eating and reading at panera bread
-gym
-teaching (vulnerable to jailbait)
Active
-go to bars and hit on girls (I hate this)
-salsa dancing
-drop in volleyball night
-ski lift?
Desperate
-Craigslist
-free dating sites: okcupid, plentyoffish
-expensive dating sites: ??
-give in a finally read "the game" ?
Awesome shit you organize
-LAN parties in an alternate universe where hot girls play games
-...I forget
-lego events?
-4 AM motorcycle races
-Epic party scene (I wish)
-start a nearly all female metal band
Attracting people passively
-witty t-shirt (overdone, also too hispter. also lame)
-funny costume (dont do tron, people think its nerdy)
- ??
Attracting people: shotgun method
-stunts: operation cowabunga
-record music videos (Who is Watching riff, There Is by blink 182)
-personal website ?
Not sure how to categorize
-concerts
-open track days with the STI
-awesome private karaoke
-quit job and attend nursing school (kev offered to pay but I think he is lying)
-let holly and nicole sign me up for "the bachelor"
Vacation mindset: Solo operations
-drive to vancouver for salsa
-ski in utah
-visit new orleans during mardis gras. Fuck I really really really want to do that. When is mardis gras? Oh fuck catholics and their bullshit holiday schedules. Holidays should be dates, not formulas. I should make up some of that shit for my birthday...."oh yeah my birthday is typically the 3rd wednesday after the last full moon before the equinox, unless of course that would fall on a sunday, in which case..."
Vacation mindset: group ops
-bachelor party (fucking espensive)
-girls that live 3000 miles away

For the record, I am fully in support of you going on "The Bachelor"...that would be solid comedy gold...
