Puzzle

I got up early this morning so that I could start to check off the long list of things I have to do. I was on a roll, until I realized that I had run out of things to do that didn't involve me paying someone else. Since that won't be happening for a while, I had the rest of the afternoon to sit around and go crazy in my place. It doesn't make any sense that a person who is such a misanthrope can get so lonely so quickly. Are there ways to meet new people that don't involve going to a bar and drinking by yourself? Let me know if there are suggestions.
