I managed to live far from my family during the time my cousins were all popping them out.

I needed that. <BR/><BR/>I am actually skipping out on a baby shower this afternoon b/c: 1) It is for a friend whom other friends of mine and I showered a couple of weekends ago, so I don't feel the need to shower her again; 2) It is being given by someone I don't know, and I wouldn't know anyone else at the shower, save the mother-to-be; 3) Everyone else at the shower will be a mother; and 4) The host sent out cards with the invitation inviting people to "share their favorite memory they have had with their own child" (!)<BR/><BR/>I don't think the excuse I gave for missing it was very good, but I don't feel that guilty about it. I guess my friend (the mother-to-be) thought I would feel bad about not being invited. I know her heart was in the right place, but I think I'd pick a root canal over attending this particular event.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3178366214524455884.post-51382252232543361982008-07-12T11:07:00.000-04:002008-07-12T11:07:00.000-04:00Heh heh... love the "When I kick the heroin" respo...Heh heh... love the "When I kick the heroin" response to the always intrusive "when are you having kids" question!<BR/><BR/>Some baby shower games really are disgusting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3178366214524455884.post-54848769116579376232008-07-12T04:07:00.000-04:002008-07-12T04:07:00.000-04:00Ha!!

The big question she raises is what about single women who forever remain single? Where is their big party where everyone brings a gift? There is no shower for singles. There should be something for women who do not have children..for whatever reason. We deserve gifts too! And everyone whose shower we have ever attended would be invited and expected to bring gifts. Gifts we've registered for of course!Guera!https://www.blogger.com/profile/12616928404421960462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3178366214524455884.post-36684277825909590842008-07-11T21:27:00.000-04:002008-07-11T21:27:00.000-04:00Thanks Loribeth!
