Oh Lord...
So two women I know from one of my communities asked if they could throw me a shower. I said YES and introduced them figuring they'd work it all out and we'd just agree on a day and give them the emails of everyone we want to invite...
Hadn't heard anything except a tentative date in early Aug. Fine. A bunch more days go by and I'm kind of thinking it would be good to get the invite out so people can mark their calendars, right? Cause people like to go away in Aug and if they had dates to pick between, maybe they'd come to the shower.
Today I send the what's up email...no word from number one. word from number 2: "I can't be the organizer. I can only help."
My first reaction is: JESUS CHRIST! why did you ask to throw me a shower thinking you'd only be able to help and not plan it? I called M and she thought it wasn't a big deal. Maybe I'm hormonal-but back me up here Women. Am I supposed to plan my own shower? No, I didn't think so. (put on whiny, pouty face).
poo.
I even told another woman who wanted to throw us one-no because I thought we were covered with the other people who asked.
wahhhhhh. cryin' like my baby probably would....
just need to release. thanks for reading.

Re: Hormones? Actin' like a straight girl about a shower!
That stinks!
I don' think it is acting like a stright girl - I think it is acting like a person who expects her friends to follow through on their commitments.
Straight girls have nothing to do with it-just felt like being silly. (sorry straighty lurkers!) M told me to wait 24 hrs before taking any action and low and behold-this AM we get a note from one who says everything is under control and to email her our list of folks. can I say: Whew?
Still more drama coming about who to invite/not invite now...pray for us! It's supposed to be fun, right?
