Logan Likes Mary Anne! Part The End!

Greetings, my dears! So, I should have had this snark up last night but it got too facking hot and I fell asleep in the middle of it. But today I got up bright and early and after Animal Crossing, I finished it up. I think this is my favorite book I've done so far. Not only is the plot not total ass but the BSC acts like normal human beings

I remember reading this as a kid and not understanding MA's being so upset at a party, like "Your friends all threw you a party because they like you so much, why are you complaining?!" (and I was a shy kid who identified with MA), but I understand it a lot better now. Like having friends who like you is good, but having friends who *know* you is better, know what you would and wouldn't like. I don't really like surprises, nor the feeling of people planning things behind my back (even if it's good things for me). That reminds me that someone had a surprise party for me in the fall, and I did find it slightly uncomfortable (although it wasn't a total surprise because I accidentally saw an email to my husband about it, but I pretended). Fortunately I'm not as shy/full of social anxiety as I was as a kid, so I did manage to enjoy it.

And that reminds me of my brother's 30th birthday this past fall, and my SIL planned out this whole day of surprise entertainment for him, and at one of the first segments, the one I came to, she was trying to get him to guess where the next segment was based on a clue, and while he was sitting there not enjoying it like she was (my interpretation), I leaned across and said as politely as I could, "You know what I hate more than surprises? Guessing games!", and my brother pointed at me and nodded. I have a suspicion that she planned the 30th birthday party extravaganza that *she* would have liked (I should make sure that he's aware of that before she turns 30)

In conclusion, if anyone is ever planning a birthday party or any kind of party for anyone, take extra care that you're planning the party that *they* want, not that *you* would want.
