One thing I am absolutely great at is Meeting and talking with new people. If you get within arm's length you will most likely be spoken to. So, why not create more friends across the planet with a pen pal or two? I have a meet-up group called "The Artsy Agenda" which schedules artsy activities to attend. This includes Museums, Exhibits, and concerts, for example. I also enjoy reading, a lot, but never fiction. Periodically, I think, I need to read more fiction. So, something top-ranked in the genre is purchased. Starting with good intentions I'm quickly reminded why I don't read fiction.
