Celebrating with friends
I’m all hung over from the party, which is odd because I don’t drink. I think it was the late night, much talking, and general party business.
I didn’t have any alcohol for the party but figured someone would bring wine (people did) but then I realized I have no wine glasses so I had to hit up my friendly neighbor to bring some by. I guess I should pick some up next time I’m at Goodwill.
So this was our first party in this house and I was interested to see how the social flow would work. I had to shoo people out of the kitchen (people always want to hang in the kitchen) but then it worked our nicely. There was room for three social groupings and I think everyone was able to hang with the people they wanted to hang with.
And the food was good. We had a lot of it. (We’re eating the left-overs now for lunch.)
But I’m left feeling vaguely unhappy likely because I over-teased a friend of mine about a friend of hers. Sometimes I don’t know when to shut up.
Gaaah, I always wake up the day after a party with some form of regret about something I’ve said too much of. Verbal diarrhea, a social disease.
Sounds like a fun party tho!
I think lately Ive had these huge bursts of verbal diahorrea in social situations and I seem to be messing everything up for myself. Are there any guides available that give advice about how to talk/ even be around people and socialise without saying stuff to jeopardise everything for yourself?
