Do you think it gets more difficult, because we're just getting older and more picky about what kind of people we want to hang out with? Sometimes I find myself being overly critical about a new group of people, without really giving them a chance--maybe because I'm married and that makes it easier to be "alone," in a way. I hope we won't have trouble in Seattle--I'd like to get back into the rowing community again, somehow--but it remains to be seen. It's been years since I was back there, and people keep telling me how much the ethos has changed there.
