FF-
What a great post! It's great that you are wanting to do something you find difficult in the name of your recovery. It demonstrates the kind of openness of mind and willingness that is required if we are to change our way of thinking and living.
A good ice breaker might just to call someone from the list that said something you liked at the meeting. Just say "I just wanted to call to say 'hi' and I like what you had to share."
The other person will likely carry the conversation from there. It's not weird, it's what we expect and want but don't get nearly enough of. We know we've got another person among us who is serious about their program. Being connected is such an important part of the program for me. These calls make my day and are one more thing to help me stay sober.
I look forward to hearing how your program is going since you are obviously off to a great start.
