I kept thinking it started at 7pm but I received a text saying it was at 5:30 when I was half asleep. I sat by some nice people. Beverly, Rose, Jeff, Mike who bought a house in West Valley then moved to our ward, Mike Wong, Jason from my dinner group, another guy I'm going to look up in our directory. Everyone in my ward is friendly, easy to meet and talk to AND pretty normal which is VERY nice. There were too many weird people in my Logan ward. I had to be extremely careful who I spoke to there because they'd assume I was interested in them or other stupid jump-to-conclusions things.

Dinner was alright, nothing special. Mike Wong is Chinese, raised in Salt Lake City, went to Highland High School and works as a software engineer. He told me his mother is in a nursing home and that she had a stroke last year. He told me she is in her eighties. I told him my mother is 70. I just added him on Facebook. He has pictures of his very pretty red Tesla. Uh huh, that's a car over 100,000. Everyone at my table was really nice.

The other Mike grew up in Midvale. I wish I remembered the other software engineer guy's name. I'm going to look through our ward directory. Jeff is one of our clerks. He is an attorney. On his profile he just writes that he is gainfully employed. I hated having to tell all of them I'm an unemployed librarian but they didn't really seem to care. How refreshing nice men who own their own homes AND are gainfully employed. I wouldn't have to support anyone sitting at my table. I looove that.

Tomorrow is the Menace Thanksgiving dinner. I am REALLY glad I decided to attend my Midsingles ward here.
