Four Ways In Which I've Hidden From People to Avoid Mild Social Interaction, Lately:

-Darted into bizarre aisles of the grocery store (Dog food! Stationary! Chips!) because I didn't want to have to make this call: do I acknowledge this girl who I totally-know-exactly-who-she-is (because she dated a friend of a friend AND knows my boyfriend) or do I decline to nod because I don't know if she actually knows who I am (we've never spoken!) and that would be weird. 

-Ate a banana in Ben's bedroom because I thought it would be just too strange a sight for his roommate to walk in on me eating fruit alone in their living room at 9:30 in the morning. 

-Wore my sunglasses on the bus on a cloudy day to ensure no-accidental eye-contact with an acquaintance.

-Just this morning, slept in at Ben's after he left for work, and treated leaving the apartment while his roommate was in the shower (thus avoiding conversation of any kind, even though I have conversations with Dave and have no reason to want to avoid one) as a covert operation. Felt very proud of myself for my stealth, even though I left several items of clothing behind, knocked over a large box, and ran into the door.
