I’ve been kind of anxious about tomorrow these past few days. I’m going to a single day developer conference alone, with no-one else I know or work with. This means I’ll be interacting with people I don’t know. That is the point of this — this activity is Feb’s “get out more” goal — but I’ve been partly wondering whether I’ve bitten off more than I can chew here.

But reflecting on it just now, it may not be as bad as I think. Most of the day will be the actual sessions. It’s the breaks that I’m anxious about, but I can probably deal with them. It wouldn’t be the first social gathering in a industry setting I go to where I didn’t know anybody. I was going to say it was, until I started writing this post, and recalled past instances where I’ve been in the same boat, and although I wouldn’t say it was easy, I lived to tell the tale. I may be able to step outside for a little while and go for a walk if I absolutely need to.

So it should be fine. I’ll give myself an out at lunchtime if necessary but I’ll try to stay the whole day.
