On Sat. morning, I met found a group through MeetUp.Com of professional networkers. They meet at a pizza place in North Dallas to interface and socialize. People my age - from every profession.
It was very hard to walk in not knowing anyone and inroduce myself --- like the new kid in 10th grade. But they were very nice and welcoming.
They invited me to join them for Drag Queen Bingo Sat. night. It was a ball! I won $60 It's THE event in Dallas. There are about 600 in the hall (the Bar is Open.) By the end of bingo few people are really playing bingo anymore. It was totally fun to go out with new friends.
Sunday I found a United Church of Christ in N. Dallas. It's a large church. About 800 in the congregation. Formal. Liberal. Protestant. It was nice. It's "High Churh".
This church has "career transition ministry" on Monday morning. A career counselor leads a discussin and networking group at noon. They were very nice and helpful. I got some good ideas about hot to proceed.
I'm very sure that I'm going to meet someone soon who will introduce me to the person who will open the door for me.
