And we already knew through our writing that we all share a certain commonality of thought, so there’s already a bond.

An interesting point about social skills: I can’t speak for anyone else, but I find that my social skills are contingent upon the social dynamic of the person or group with whom I’m interacting.

With some people I never seem able to express a coherent thought because there’s simply no resonance between us or because they think I’m mentally disabled (that never helps in an intellectual discussion). We seemed, on the other hand, to be a really good group so everyone easily brought forward their most healthy and witty selves. Other than My insulting New Jersey in front of Mary I don’t think I made any of my usual social pratfalls.
