I'm really not looking forward to work tomorrow. The people who I work with are all like best friends and they totally ignore me...and I'm usually okay with that. Tomorrow we're being forced to do a bunch of team building stuff, like trust catches and shit, and I'm convinced that no one is going to catch me. Also, I'm terrified about engaging in conversation with my co-workers. I totally tried that once - it was just like me rambling for a few minutes about how much George Lucas sucks and then eventually stuttering something about my aversion to coffee while a few of my coworkers stared at me blankly. Man. How great it would be to have friends at work.
^I sure appreciate the sound advice and empathy!
I work in a relatively stuffy corporate environment full of brodudes and staunch straight-laced types...and I'm more or less the disheveled bookworm guy who's wearing a Dead Milkmen tee as an undershirt. It's kind of like high school all over again. Oh well. Perhaps I'll brush up on my knowledge of team sports and join their fantasy football league this coming fall![:\](https://bluelight.org/xf/BL_Images/Orig_Emoji/wrygrin.gif "wry grin :\")

Didn't end up looking here til now. That high school thing never really ends. It's just not called high school again. It's called college, work, etc. Sports seems good. Maybe that will help. But usually there is one person in that group who is willing to talk to you ... if you talk to them first ... that kind of thing 
i am a bit late here, but what happened with the 'ropes course' thing, i like that actually! haha
i did one where we had to climb a telephone pole, stand on the top of it, and then leap out maybe 5-6' and grab a swinging bar - it isnt often we can feel that free fall sensation, safely, or, one hopes safely anyway
