One thing I’ve been thinking about lately is the fact that I haven’t been seeing the people I want to see as much as I’d like. I’ve got a lot of social obligations, but between graduate school and the rest of life, I haven’t been seeing friends much.

For that matter, there are people I’d like to get to know better, but circumstances (i.e. grad school) haven’t made that easy.

I’m thinking of doing Saturday morning brunch on a semi-regular basis (once a month, say?) and inviting people, but planning for uninvited guests. Who would I invite? Dunno for sure, but friends, family, readers of this blog if they’re interested (if there are any that don’t fall into the first two groups…), and people from work.

I’d imagine it taking place around 10-12 am. That’s early enough that you don’t feel like you’ve missed breakfast, but late enough that I could get kids up and dressed.

At least that’s the idea. At this point I don’t even know if people would be interested. I’ve had similar ideas before, but haven’t mentioned it because I haven’t wanted to take on additional responsibilities (even fun ones).

Bearing in mind that there’s way too much going on during December, I’d probably start this in January. People might be up for some casual hanging around at that point.
