Not a Halloween party, just a pity party

I'm throwing myself a pity party today. Once again, I'm the designated chauffeur to a bunch of Teenagers tonight as all the parents are going to be at different Halloween parties. Again, I'm the one that is going to be home alone, while all my other friends wont' go out and they won't do anything fun this evening. Either because they will work tomorrow morning or becuase they have other plans or just won't go out. Drives me INSANE.
I PROBABLY could find a party to go to by myself, but then I keep thinking the cops will be out, the people are all going to be drunk crazy and I don't want to dress up. I KNOW, I sound like a total pooper.

I don't attend meetups anymore, because I don't want to run into anyone that I knew. I know that sounds stupid, but I kind of realized they weren't really my friends, but only mere aquaintances during a time when I needed friends.

My mom said, I should go on a date and I told her the LAST thing I want to do right now is date. LOL. Dating a guy, just to get out of the house seems really stupid, because it adds that un-needed stress in my life, when I'm actually happy the way things without a man in my life to cause drama. That last drama with RF was enough for me to keep me at bay from meeting anyone else. The men, just always seem to have SUCH issues. UGH.

This whole working from home, isn't all it's cut out to be. I'm just finding myself recluse more and more. Totally sucks.

Lots of bigs hugs your way! You're right about not dating to just get out the house, it dosen't work!


I feel your pain! All I ever do is work! I have no social life what so ever! So, I'm feeling very bummed today, hearing people talk about parties and plans for the weekend, it's hard sometimes.


Feel better, you're not alone.

Hey Cat, Ill attend your party. I had plans for tonight, bought my costume...been working on it for weeks now...and had to take DD to the Dr. yesterday and she has croup. So my mom is watching her today for me since my ohhhh so not understanding boss made me come in (im leaving 1/2 day and she can bite me if she doesnt like it). My mom said shed watch her for me but the thought of a drink or two then coming home to her in the middle of a couching fit is not appealing in the least. We spent part of last night sitting in the steam and it really helped...so like i said ill come to your party...LOL and to make it worse i have a ton of candy at home and i know i will sit there all night stuffing my jibs with it!


(((HUGS)))

Happy Halloween!

Cool, you all are the best! I can always use pity party people who all sit around with me, stuffing candy in the mouth and whining about how it sucks that we are at home on a Halloween Friday Night. LOL.

I think all of us have experienced being alone in the midst of people celebrating.
