Dec. 27th, 2014 08:21 pmI was trying to explain why I'm resistant to going over to people's houses to visit with friends and my dad said I was a crappy friend. Coupled with my recent self-consciousness about being a boring person, I'm kind of tapped out on the 'be a normal person front'. I'm sure it was just something he blurted out because I was kind of thinking out loud and didn't have a fully formed opinion/expression yet. I still feel bad though, and it's giving more ammo to my brain telling me I'm a worthless person.
On a brighter note, my aunt's house was fairly nice. Which is interesting because normally it's socially uncomfortable. My grandma's house was socially uncomfortable and normally it's kind of neutral. What a twist. Prooobably something to do with one of my cousins being super on pain meds or something and acting weird. It is interesting to know that none of them have boy/girlfriends either and they subscribe to a more "conventional" way of life. So I don't feel like as much of a loser.
I am really glad that everyone I got things for liked them, or at least found them absurd. Which is my other goal if I can't find something people will like. I got one of my sisters in the gift exchange at my grandma's. So I got her a gift card for the store she wanted, and then I went to the thrift store and bought mini blinds. Taped the card to the mini blinds and wrapped the whole thing. It was amusing. I hope we end up switching to white elephant, but even if we don't I'm still going to get my next pick something weird again.
Next year mugs is so on though. Merry Mugmas.
