Ok Archer...what can you do to get out of the house. There are tons of free activities out there that you can do through library / park district / forest preserve District / community colleges.
I found a $hit ton of these to get out.
There are a lot of folks Here who have been using meetup to find groups. I looked it up and was amazed at all of the structured and loose group activities that there Are to chose from.
Get out. Have a good time. No reason not to...what do you have to lose if you to out.
