Why do I offer to host knowing it'll throw me into an anxious mess? Thankfully it's only coffee for Boyo's sister and her partner, but I'm still like urg
I freaked out a bit throwing the partay. Last time I did a little gathering like that was about 20 yrs ago, and we were all high after clubbing so it was easy lol.
How people manage the stress of hosting big ones is very much beyond me.
It was a lovely partay though. Nice & friendly.
Hosting an event is ALL about prep. Even to the point of drawing up a chart on a piece of paper. And dividing up tasks to be done on day minus x, day minus 1, day itself. Then the actual event is a LOT more relaxed. I thought you did really well for the partay.
Seems in my peer group stress is remedied with coke basically lol
lol. Fancy.
No way I could've afforded that.
My blood was never blue enough for bougie speed lol
