I really didn't know what to expect last night, but I was pretty much prepared for anything. Apparently I over-engineered the supply of alcohol by an order of magnitude. Oh well, more for the next party.
It turned out to be just what I needed. It was small enough to where I could interact with everyone and not feel overwhelmed, but large enough to be entertaining and fun. It was great.
Sen is a totally cool guy, even if he doesn't realize it yet. And I'm totally impressed that he made it down to my house from Seattle!
---------------------------------------------
So on other news. I felt very anxious for the whole day today. I felt like I was under so much pressure. The morning (or what one would consider morning after waking up at 11:30) was okay: I cleaned up from the party, took a shower and putzed around on the internet, but after that, it was kind of really weird. I went to a munch, and things were all askew. I felt like I was caught in this enormous compromise. The service was completely unacceptable; between that and the time it took for the food to actually arrive, I was pretty cheesed (I thought about what adjective I ought to use there, but nothing better came up). I did get the meal comped, but it still wasn't right. The group dynamic was also really strange. I didn't feel comfortable being there, but I didn't want to just leave. Three of the guys there were just very very loud (and also smoked at the table, without asking beforehand).
I left there and saw that I had a voicemail from a friend telling me that I needed to hurry up and decide on order quanitites and how it had to be done today. It was not the sort of obligation that I really wanted today. I went over to his house to figure out stuff (I was right there anyway from the lunch) and also kill time. I ended up finding things to order, but it was just really pressuring. It's just that right now, I don't want to do this. It's too much responsibility. I want to wait until next month, when I know what's happening with work, my money, this house, everything. I don't want to start anything else.
Three are other things from today--but that's something eles I don't want to start tonight.
