Nov. 19th, 2005 08:03 pmI spent all day at my cousin Janelle's baby shower. It was so, so exceedingly lame. There was absolutely going on- we sat around and talked, and then we ate, and then we left. No games. No gift-opening. No nothing.
The worst part was that we haven't seen these relatives since Sonia's funeral in March, and suddenly everyone's either married, engaged, or pregnant. Or, in Barbie's case, she HAD A BABY and is HAVING ANOTHER BABY in like, two weeks. Danielle got married in a civil ceremony but is actually getting married next November; my Madrina is engaged to be married this March, Natali, who turns 21 next week, to be married next October. We never see that family anymore, and it sucks.
There were five hundred babies there, and pregnant ladies. My... third cousins? My dad's cousin's daughters, so, his second, and my third, I guess, or something... they're twins, and one looks so much like Renée and the other one has a much softer face. I have some very pretty relatives, and some not so pretty relatives.
In short, we were there for three and a half hours and it was so ridiculously lame. And the food was bad. And we were embarrassingly out of the loop about our own family.
And now, for the reasons I love people.

Heh. Not a single girl.
