And I don't think I like surprises!

Ugh, I'm cringing today because I feel so silly. My coworkers and a couple friends threw a shower at one of their homes. I thought it was just a random spring gathering. Didn't seem weird because same cw had a get together before Christmas.

It DID cross my mind that it could be a shower thing, but no one really made a big deal of me rsvping and checking on when I was coming so it didn't make me suspicious.

I was totally bitching about having to drive to cw house on a Saturday. I'm such a jerk.

I was surprised and everything they did was really nice. I think I mostly felt overwhelmed. And I kind of feel like they did too much and I hope no one felt pressured to contribute more than they wanted to to everything.

H was in on it and so were my 2 bffs. They asked H for anyone else, and he really should have told them about a friend from my old job. I guess he felt like it would be weird with old cw and new cw, but she's really a party person and asked me about a shower but I told her I wasn't having one. Now I feel bad that she wasn't able to be part of it.

I also just can't get over how easy it was for people to hide so much from me. It was all for such a sweet reason, but I'm still shocked, especially about H. I thought I was much more aware.

Omg, I just need to stop thinking about all the details and be happy!

I clearly had no idea they liked me this much.

I'm blaming pregnancy hormones on my reaction. At least for the party I was able to roll with it. It was a fun time. I just have to let go a little more about it now.

That's really sweet! I would probably have a hard time with it too because I'm kind of a control freak. Sounds like it was a fun time, though, which is all that matters in the end! Try not to over analyze now.
