It Figures, Part II

You know what stinks even more than missing your own bridal shower? Being constantly reminded that you did by your coworkers. Yes, I realize that I missed my bridal shower, and am not too happy about it, but I'd rather not hear about how awesome the cake was or how delicious the strawberries were or how weird it was not to have me there. Let's move on.

It Figures

Bridal showers are fun, right? You get food, fun presents, and most importantly, the spotlight is on you as the upcoming bride. Well guess what? I missed my own bridal shower. Out of all the days that I could have been too sick to come to work, it just had to be yesterday that I woke up feeling terribly ill, feverish, exhausted and overall too sick to function. Since it is too close to the end of the school year and so much is going on, the shower could not be rescheduled, so my coworkers had it in my absence. What a strange party that must have been. "Congratulations... uh, nobody! Let's have some cake!"

At least I scored some sympathy ice cream cake today out of it.
