Crazy
 
I really don't like to make small talk at parties and similar gatherings. You know the kind of chatter that neither of the parties really cares about. I can never find anything to say. I just end up the quiet husband behind and to the right of the social butterfly wife. I guess what would help is having some sort of common ground. I don't mind talking to strangers when I feel both of us are vaguely interested it the conversation.
That said, I honestly dread the thought of having to go to Christmas parties with my wife. I would rather skip the whole holiday. Do other people actually enjoy these things?
