Pondering why I've become *so* resistant to attending work social events.
I smashed "NO!" on the RSVP for the Christmas party so hard and so fast.
I think it's because:
* I get a stronger sense of human connection from shared project work
* I'm getting old and can't handle the excitement
* I need every minute of my spare time for creative stuff
* I withdrew a bit during the pandemic -- or, rather, became more comfortable being my introverted self
