Default Crappy Friday night

So, I really wanted to go see Slumdog Millionaire tonight. I hear it's a phenomenal movie, but also a bit intense, so I wanted to go with someone to maybe discuss it afterwards. I asked no fewer than eight people to go with me. All either didn't answer their phone, were out of town, didn't want to go, or were too busy to go.

So now I'm going by myself. I'll at least see the movie, but I feel like this is a microcosm of my life. I try to invite people to participate in my life, but people are completely uninterested. I'm not sure how to keep up the unrealistic optimism that people actually will actually want to go with me. I find it hard to keep on making the phone calls. I feel like I'm selling vacuum cleaners and just keep on getting hung up on.
