A question to the veteran residents

[mookiebean.livejournal.com]

Last night I hit the SomeDay Cafe again, just to hang out and try to be creative. The atmosphere there is, I have observed, very mellow and laid-back. As much as I adore the place, it does not appear to be the type of place where someone will go up to you and say, "Hey, whatcha readin'?" or "Wow, that's quite an interesting comic strip you're drawing!" or something like that.

Now... I'm new to living in Davis Square, and I'm all about meeting new people and getting into conversations with interesting strangers. Y'know, like they do in the movies. ^_^

Can anyone suggest a place that's good to meet new faces and such?
