Orphaned

I hate when I go to a media event not knowing anyone and everyone is in little groups talking to each other. How do you break into a conversation to introduce yourself? Surely it's rude to hover around, waiting for a break in the conversation.

I found myself in a room of economists today. Journalists I can handle now that I'm a big girl, but economists I haven't had enough experience in. I was orphaned.
