Just like me, complain about feeling alienated and then disappear. Thing is, I usually have little to say that would be of interest to anyone. Just a bunch of disjointed thoughts that I wouldn't even bother Twitting, if I did that.
The past weekend was Halloween. My cousin has a costume party every year. I didn't go. I never do, invited or not. She didn't invite me. I was only "invited" because I am related.
I tried to write a big long thing about how my cousin and I have never gotten along, but it was really, really incoherent. Suffice it to say, my cousin is a smug, unpleasant person, and I don't really like her very much.
I tried to politely convey this stream of nonsense to my uncle's very nice girlfriend without going in to too much detail, so she would quit trying to convince me that we could just go to eat and party-crash. It's not that I don't want to hang out with her; she's really funny and sweet.
I just...do not go places I am not invited. It's...rude to me. Also, I am in no mood to spend time around people I neither know nor desire to know while wearing silly, impractical clothes. Just a waste of really fabulous makeup. And time I could spend playing Borderlands. If I wanted to deliberately put myself in a grossly awkward social situation for hours, I'd just...uh...leave the house.
And then later that my uncle calls to tell me the party was boring, and there was some kind of minor drama from the hostess. And I was GLAD.
