Yesterday before heading back to DC, I decided to text everyone to see what they were planning on doing for the night. No one really had anything planned but everyone keep saying they were going to check out Shadow Room. So with that in mind I when I got back to DC, I had a quick dinner, jump in the shower, and headed out to there.

I arrived at 11pm which way too early for DC clubs. Anyway, the club had people in it, but sporadically spread out. And of course no one I knew was around. So I check my coat and headed to the back bar. The back bar is smaller which made it seem there were more people back there than the front bar. I really did not have a game plan, I notice everyone just pounding their drinks waiting for the club to get packed.

I ordered a diet coke and open my first set - two guys standing at the bar. Just a straight up - “Hey, I’m Sniper”. To my surprise they just started talking, nothing too serious…when does this place pick up, what other clubs are hot tonight…etc… A three set of girls head towards the bar behind me, the first girls politely ask if she can get to the bar and with the movement of bodies everyone kind of pair off just chit chatting all fluff. This slowly morphed into me bounce from set to set meeting people and making new friends until Cowboy and JackRabbit arrived.

I was in this conversation with this cute Asian girl (BMalaysian) when they arrived. I made introductions and we continue to chat. The BMalaysian invites us to her table. She introduce us to her friends and everyone just started chatting and getting along. This continue through the night some drinks, a little dancing, and conversation. At closing time we walk BMalaysian and her friends to her car. I kiss and number close her. And the night ends.

Here’s the interesting thing, there was about 45 seconds when I first arrived where I was like I’m out of here. Had I jetted I would not had a good time. I also learned that sometimes you just have to let things flow. I did not purposely bounce from set to set, it was more like turning and saying “Oh, Hi” and just going into conversation. For some reason, I felt this weird sensation that people were watching me, but I really was doing anything just talking.

Anyway, I am sure there is a lot more lessons in my outing last night. I’m just happy I step outside of my head and went with the flow.

It started off as just relaxing after Thanksgiving weekend and lasted seven days. For seven days I did my daily routine except for with very little human contact or engagement. The only person I spoke with face to face was a women at the gym in my building and all that was a simple “Hello”. Granted I was not totally isolated because I spoke with friends over email, facebook, and over the phone, but for the most part it was just me.

Now, I was not sitting on my couch playing video games all day. I was actually quite busy. I was planning for Christmas and the inauguration. I was prospecting potential clients for next year. I was working the current projects that I have with clients and I finishing up a term paper.

I do have to say it was kind of relaxing. It was the first time in about two years that I was completely alone and it was very productive professionally and personally. It was not something that I set out to do, it just happened.

Now, with all that said. I can easily see how people get wrapped up in their world and in their heads. It is so easy just to sit at home and work, and in my case even go to the gym and with grocery delivery services, you could easily never step outside.

While convenient, it is sad. It makes me wonder if this is the reason why it is easy despite whatever random approach anxiety that I may have to talk to women.

Anyway, enough of my pondering. Hope everyone Thanksgiving went well. Chat with ya’ll soon.

Wow, it’s been a crazy two months out of DC. I can’t really complain unlike some of my colleagues who literally spent 18 months away from home I at least got to come back and forth.

My social skills have serious coat of rust. It’s time to get back on the horse.

I have been out every night this week. Mostly because of the convention watch parties at various bars. I realized on Monday that this was the first time I had be out completely by myself since probably the beginning of this year. No friends, no co-workers, and SLA guys. What I found out is that I had slide back into bad habits when I'm not with someone or a group a people.

Now, am I being hard on myself, because maybe I'm in search of that elusive perfect set. I opened 3 single sets, 2 2-sets, and a mix 5-set and number closed twice on Monday. I basically went with "Hey, I'm Sniper" - I have yet to figure out why this works better for me rather than a basic opinion opener. So my routine was open, fluff, banter, funny story, banter - I basically was going off the cuff which as you most of you know if ain't interesting you're going to lose the set fairly quickly; that's exactly happened with my first set, but I got the first done quickly, it was probably the fastest I have ever opened. It went like this.

Open bar door, see girl, walk over to girl, open girl, fluff talk with girl, girl starts to get bored, politely ejected. (Hahahaha)

But it was all good. And it was relief to get that first set out of the way. Everything went better after that, I was rusty and out of my element, I still plowed on and had a blast.

John McCain may have blown himself out of the Presidency.

Obama is too popular. Obama is a celebrity. Whine..whine…whine.

John McCain has a great story to tell. His life is a DHV, but instead he chose to be a whiny chode.

I can’t wait until this election is over.

I ran across this last week and bookmarked the website. In Japan, the name give to someone that is extremely anti-social is hikikomori. About 80 percent of the hikikomori are male, some as young as 13 or 14 and some who live in their rooms for 15 years or more. A japanese company has come up idea to sell to this niche market and it very simple, cute girls staring right at you.

Some people say it’s weird, it a fab, or wtf? But I think it is pretty cool. It is actually a tool that I think every social artist should take advantage of (at least the free videos). It’s kinda like Carlos Xuma’s, “Stare down the Bunny” exercise.

I was a bad wingman last night(Saturday). Bad is a nice term, I completely sucked. I was so busy trying to keep my two pivots that I forgot my boy, Kamransec. At the end of the day, it does not matter because Kamransec is Kamransec which means he is in set all the time. I even think he has body quadruples because you can be looking at Kamransec in the eyes and shaking his hand and then less than .5 secs he is in set.

As much as I tease him about it, he is getting better with every set; and I’m pissed because Kamransec gets better and I get worse. But that’s just nature and guys will compete.

Here is why I will do whatever my wing Kamransec tells me? Because he opened a seven-set (two guys / 4 girls (none below 8.5) / and opened an 11) and held his own. Just to make this simple, he was the only guy to open the 11 all night long, plus get just continously plow through her sh*t tests until he decided that it was time to go home.

I have been a bad blogger. Mainly because I have not sent a whole week in one location since October and plus just being plain lazy about writing. But during that time I made meet some interesting people that are involved in the social arts and learned alot and screwed up tons. Let’s get to blogging.

Not that she (Kathy Griffin) is something too really look at, but come on dude (Steve Wozniak).

No hanky panky ???

You are a FREAKING BILLIONAIRE !!! You got rolled.

Kathy Griffin: “I never fucked him or anything!“

Hopefully, it’s just another one of her jokes.
