Talk about your self

{if Topic_Self = 1}You begin with a retelling of what Jen had earlier related: your name, where you are from, and how you came to meet. Your version of events is not exactly the same, of course, but they are still recognizably different versions of the same truth. There is polite nodding all around the table as everybody eats their food and sips their drinks.{elseif Topic_Self = 2}You steer the conversation back to yourself, though you seem to have exhausted the more readily available surface topics. Grasping for what else, you begin to talk about your enjoyment of getting outside and running, preferably in a park, though wherever you can in a pinch. There are a few agreeing nods.{else}Given the glazed looks plastered across everybody's face, you keep your remarks about yourself short.{endif}
