Brad and I have been feverishly working on our house in preparation for the arrival of his mother who is coming to stay with us at the end of the month. This would account for our lack of social activities. This however does not mean we still don't love you guys and love to hear from you all

I'm not sure if it was me you meant, but I wasn't the one organizing it. Dave and I were at the library and Ryan messaged us to ask if we wanted to get together with Jesse. He told us who was coming. At the last minute we invited Marc and Sadie because we had asked them to do something earlier and they couldn't make it because Sadie was working until 9. Seeing as how we had taken so damn long to get anything organized and it was a complete mess, I realized that we were going to get together until then anyway and told Dave he should really invite Sadie 'cause I remember how much it used to suck to work a job that made you miss things with friends all the time.
Anyhoo, I probably STILL would have invited you, assuming I was organizing and not Ryan (mostly), but I honestly had gotten the impression that you were very busy and stressed lately and I thought you generally didn't do things after about 9pm. I suppose it's still nice to be invited even if you can't make it so I'll keep that in mind next time.
Regarding when I talked to you about being concerned about not being invited to things. I just want to be sure you know that that wasn't in reference to every situation, every outing, with all friends. I was mainly concerned that Dave and I had done something to upset you because it seemed that we barely heard from you for months, which wouldn't have raised much of a red flag for me considering he and I weren't making much of an effort to hang out either for the most part. What made me really start to wonder was when I had contacted you about doing something for St. Patrick's, a holiday that I know is a big deal for you, and I didn't get a response. To me it was frustrating because I was being proactive and didn't get a response, not because I just wasn't called. I felt ignored. I know now that you must have just missed the email or forgotten, but that coupled with the fact that we were never invited to your parents' party again (which I did find out there was a reason for and wish I knew at the time) and that I honestly felt you were trying to hush Steph when she mentioned it in front of us, made me feel like there was a larger problem that you were afraid to mention to us.
I know that wasn't the case (except that your parents misinterpreted our lack of jolliness at their party) and it's all water under the bride. I just wanted to clarify so you don't feel like I'll get upset with you if you don't invite us out all the time. If you plan something on the fly, don't worry about it. I was mainly paranoid about being deliberately excluded and not being told why. But I won't assume you're too busy or that you don't want to be out late again and I'll try to be an advocate to "calling Suzy" in the future. :^)
