Wow Karren how Zen is that? "If you didn't get noticed then did you really go out in public? " I tried that busting in head held high...tripped on my heels and ended up with my skirt around my ears...but that is a story for another time.
As has been said above, the idea of going out is to be seen and noticed. I don't take the time and energy to pretty myself up to stay home. But there are two actions here. The "out there" types like Karren, and TxKim, and me and others.
And the ones who find that being wallpaper is much better and easier. It depends on your attitude. The recommendation of going to a gathering sounds like a good start. After that...head high and try not to trip
