Didn't want to go to any party, but I had no choice re: the latest re-union since those friends did me a favor a decade or so ago when I visited them in their country. I looked a mess back then after 5 weeks travelling so this time, I wanted to rectify the bad image I had presented them the last time .
I was anxious about the outing, too anxious that I ended up working in the garden the whole day yesterday: weeding, moving plants around in the gardens to better locations. (Tasks which I had thought of but had no intention to do anything about it .)
The weather was nice. The group that I finally met, some of them I had last seen 4 decades ago. The food was just OK in that restaurant, but we did have a good time with each other. (I turnd up in a Jackie Kennedy dress, quite OK .)
I woke up this morning with a horrible migraine, fancy that! (I had consume no alcohol whatsoever yesterday.) Guess it was a result from being over anxious re: yesterday party. Perhaps I am a bit party phobia (Convivophobia?).
Do you enjoy going to parties or gatherings?

Maybe you lack sleep because you went home late already and woke up early that is why you had a horrible migraine?
Yes, I love going to parties and gatherings of friends. I love it that almost everybody would take pictures so I don't have to take pictures anymore. I just look at them at fb. They just tag me.

No, I feel suffocated, I always feel that I need to become someone better. Ever time I go to a family party they always boast with their success. Hehehehhe and some of my relative don't have a nice attitude that is why I hate it.

Some family gatherings are worse than parties with friends or strangers. (I know what you mean there.)

Yes and no. Sometimes I feel like a party sometimes I don`t.

The thought of going to any gathering always makes me feel a bit anxious. Guess I am too happy with my own place .

Guess I am over the hill these days, hence my reluctance with those activities which I don't care for. I don't mind however if friends or family members come visiting me suddenly.
