I've found no shortage of talkative Icelanders if you're willing to wait until they're a few beers into the evening.

But I'm in a similar situation, so if you came all this way so you could hang out with another American, I'm usually around.

if you're ok socializing with other foreigners, there's a facebook group called "away from home- living in Iceland". The woman who organizes it is always posting activities.

the embassy is also organizing a 4th of july picnic if you want to mingle with Americans.

in my experience, the best way to meet Icelanders is through some kind of activity group like a choir or a running group or something. It's a bit tricky in the summer though since so many people go on long summer vacations and the activity groups are often suspended until the fall.

Did you end up working for the guy Siggi in his guesthouse?

yeah, it's kind of a dull job but pretty ok most of the time.

Ugh. I worked for him too and totally hated everything about it. I work at a much nicer hostel now.
How long are you staying? Are you enjoying it? Does he treat you ok?
