#eternal rule of hosting. never try or youll be disappointed

[coffinbutch]

We were supposed to have 6 people over for dinner last night and then everyone had to cancel except for 2. And it was very nice to have dinner with those two people! But I can't help but feel so sad and disappointed that when it was finally our turn this is how it turned out :(

#corinne made me a birthday cake that turned out so amazing and i made my really good chili #and there was bread and salad and ofc a ton of leftovers #no ones fault. just a string of bad coincidences. i just wish i could have known ahead that this all would happen #not even the first time i have made a lot of labor intensive food only for the people we're cooking for to cancel last minute! #its like. i can never make anything that takes a lot of work bc that is the fucking magic word that ruins everything #eternal rule of hosting. never try or youll be disappointed #and now i dont want to host again. even though its not anyones fault im getting the rejection-sensitive reaction i always do #where i want to like. revoke access to myself #and ive had such a hard week. i really just wanted this one thing to go well :(
