An Experiment

I know there are social people who read my blog.

So I'm posing an experiment:

I am not going to call anyone to hang out nor plan anything and see if someone else does it.

I don't know what it is, but I'm getting super sick of always having to be the person that does the calling. And then when I make comments about how I wanted to go out but didn't since no one had called me, the friends get mad because I should have called them. I'm sorry but I am not going to magically know you were sitting at home doing nothing and want to do something unless you tell me.

I mean, the phone works both ways, right??

I'm just sick of always having to be the one to call people and plan to do things.

Granted on Friday, someone else did the planning. And it was great!! Doing the corn maze at night and then going to a dive bar in a super small town was awesome. I did suggest doing a corn maze at some point, but they actually did the plans. And playing quarters. And then having the owner of the bar across the street give us a hard time about not coming to his bar. And then him buying us a pitcher after we promised next time we would go to his bar. And then him playing quarters with us. That was awesome. And we were only going to stay until midnight. We left the bar at 2am. Good times!

Thank you for letting me vent. Maybe I'm getting grouchy in my old age. I don't know. I just realized that I always do such a good job of keeping in contact with people, and I'm starting to feel like I'm the only one making the effort lately. And I've been busy, so it's been hard to do!

Has anyone else tried doing this?? Maybe I'll just end up with no more friends. Which is fine. I'll just invest in some cats. Mike thinks I should do that anyway. It's a good start to being an old cat lady.

Oooh. . .the funny part, I'm totally allergic to cats! :)

I'm just getting sick of always having to plan things too. Like my friends will be like "Let's do something! You plan it." I am just tired.
