I just got back from a 2 hour party at my cousin's house. I can't remember the last time I was THIS exhausted. Those things just sap every single ounce of energy out of me. I was helping do something in the kitchen, and not even every 5 minutes my aunt kept hovering over my shoulder. "What can I get you?" Nothing, I'm fine. "What can I do for you." Nothing, I'm fine. "How are you doing?" Maybe you missed the first 2 answers? Leave the lady with the boiling oil alone! I strongly prefer having something to do at these parties. It keeps me from having to stand in a corner and pretend to make small talk. So please, stop trying to make small talk while I'm busy avoiding making small talk. Geez.
I get to do it all again on Tuesday. Also just realized I need some kind of present for my brother's girlfriend, whom I've only met twice and have never really had a conversation with. I'm hoping a little bath basket will work.
