    Default stood up again

    argh. Was supposed to have a party tonight at my place, noone showed. the hostess wanted it here because in her words her apt is the size of a shoebox. called, left messages, etc. as if feeling ill today wasn't enough this takes the cake.

    what gets me is i don't think she even meant to really have it. why? because none of her guests even showed. it seems if other ppl were invited they might have showed up...right?

    That is awful. Is there a possibility that she got her dates mixed up? You need to get in touch with her and make sure. They may all show up another night. LOL!
    I am sure you wanted to have the party, but as sick as you have been, it was probably for the best. You need to rest, girl. If I had been sick like you have I wouldn't have the energy to crawl to the toilet.

    Awww Missy! I am so sorry that no one showed up. I agree, if she would have really intended on having a party at least someone would have showed up.

    I hope you feel better soon.

    Was it a social party or a money-making party (like Tupperware, Party Lite, etc)?

    If the first, then people must not like your friend.

    I hate money-making parties. When invited, I say I won't be coming. (I don't say that I hate those parties, I just say I'm busy. No need to be insulting.)

    But lots of people don't have the guts or courtesy to say no to money-making parties. They just don't show up.

    Sorry you have been sick. Hope you feel better soon.

    What a rotten thing for someone to do. If I didnt want to have the party I cant imagine I would have just not showen up. THats horrible and I wish there was some way that you could charge some kind of NO Show fee.
