Lately I have been socialising a lot more because of Christmas. I have been brought into circles where there are some really smart and interesting people. I try to keep up with what they are saying, but when it is my time to contribute, names, dates, titles, etc all fly out the window and I feel like an idiot. My mind also wanders. Some of these people have photocopies for brains. I am better at cracking jokes, but I know I can't all the time. How can I fit in with them more, apart from reading every international newspaper and topical book year round?
