I would see no need to invite my family.
Y’know what’s sad?
I recently met a cousin for the first time while scheduling a doctor’s appointment. We exchanged numbers so we could reach out.
… Guess who has not reached out? And it’s been over a week now.
The last meals I’ve had comradery at? They all involved friends.
I even crashed a wedding a few weeks ago.
I was the quietest wedding crasher you’d never heard. I was that silent. A church mouse would have sounded like an angry stampede of elephants next to me. The groom later on told me that they’d forgotten to give me an invitation. And I told him that it was fine. I was still on time.
I also attended the reception.
All desserts.
And all of us are friends.
… Still trying to figure out how a chocolate cupcake cheesecake can exist.
