The life of the party

Not to sound too arrogant, but I can make people so happy.

Because of my disability and semi-shut-in status, when I do go somewhere it is a really big deal. I think people realize how hard it is for me to go places. What I need now is for them to realize they could make it easier — by offering me a ride, whatever.

But that is, perhaps, the next step.

I went to my friend's birthday party today and it was like a surprise party. She said repeatedly how happy she was I came and I know she was not expecting me. That is quite a gift I have, I guess, not necessarily a gift I want, but …

On the down side I left the party quite early. People were still coming practically. I unfortunately was only able to say hi and bye to two of my favorite people. But the house was old and small and I was very unconfident that I could get in.

Maybe next time.
