Social Awkwardness
Aug. 23rd, 2008 05:30 pmWe have been invited to people's house tonight. I like them - they are about our age but their kids are teenagers. I"m not exactly sure what prompted the invitation but Joe said they mentioned something about "bring a playpen for the kids." Joe also said they mentioned Jello shots and mojitos.
I'm just not feeling good about going tonight. I like them but I know they have some crazy drinking parties. While I have no problem with that, and might like to do it myself in the future, I'm nursing my baby AND I'm not crazy about taking my kids to a party where there are adults drinking a lot. Assuming other people are there, all their friends live practically next door and their kids are old enough that they generally stay home for these parties.
Maybe I'm a big curmudgeon but we don't even have a pack n play and I don't see Frisco sleeping in one even if we did. Nor do I see my kids falling asleep without a lot of involvement from me. I guess I'm jsut not crazy about taking my kids somewhere where I feel like they arne't exactly welcome.
