i have to go to a friend’s party today with danny. it is far away so i won’t be able to leave early. i am really worried that i will have a terrible time because it seems from the emails about it that the point of it is to drink. with means i will sit there being miserable. people will see me all unhappy and no one will want to come to my party. ugh.
and i want pancakes.

I want to come to your party:)
i can totally relate — i’m generally the only sober one at parties. i’m not completely against drinking, but after one or two i’m done. i’ve never been drunk — or even tipsy — and people think that is so peculiar — why they think this way, i don’t understand. i’ve never been big on getting wasted anyway, but i think after my brother’s accident (he was paralyzed by a drunk driver five years ago), it is something that i’ll probably never even experiment with. too scary for me. now, if only the other people at parties would just leave me the hell alone and be content with the fact that i am going to stay sober…*humph*
pancakes…mmmmm. there is something about sunday and pancakes — they go hand in hand. i was craving them this morning, too — yummy! 🙂
Let me be the martyr.
I’ll put myself up for flames.
People that drink at parties are insecure about it. They feel that if everyone isn’t drinking, something is wrong. If you are a non-drinker, the only way that they can deal with drinking is to do it somewhere else or make it seem like you’re out of place by abstaining. All the bullshit I’ve ever heard about them being concerned because you might be offended rubs me the wrong way. Choosing not to drink doesn’t mean that you automatically condemn everyone around you for being a lush. Drinkers need to come to terms with this.
As for anyone choosing to not go to your party because you feel it should be an alcohol free event, pardon me for saying but fuck ’em. If they’re that insecure about their ability to enjoy themselves without alcohol, then they wouldn’t have made the party any better by being there. Trust me, you can have and you most certainly deserve an excellent party.
parties
I am interested in the flapjacks…
I know whatcha mean… I am probably the least fun person at most parties. I socialise for a while and then I get quiet and want to leave. And I don’t like most parties…. and I can never go home because we live an hour away from most of our friends. sigh! I wish I could come to your party but jhimm’s birfday is July 13 and we’re having a party for him all the way here in Boston 🙂
