Sweet Surrender is all I have to give

While some people would call me a loser for staying home all day and only editing home movies, I loved it! It was so nice to be by myself for a change and do something that I not only love to do, but I need to get done in the next two weeks. I hope my friends don't think I'm avoiding them.

The May family reunion was also tonight; it wasn't as exciting as I thought it would be. For the first time, I told Brian that it didn't matter if he were there or not. He didn't believe me when I told this to him, but I was serious. I've learning to not get mad at Brian for things he doesn't want to do, specifically come to my family things. I think it was the talk we had before my grandpa's birthday last week that made me finally realize that I need to be less pushy... and dramatic. I did want Brian to be with me tonight, but if he didn't come, I would be fine with that.

Being the great guy he is, he came with me.

We left the reunion pretty early (mostly because it was lame) and went home. Scott called Brian and wanted to hang out, so we invited him over to watch Kung Foo Hustle. I thought about inviting Megan, but it was 9pm and I thought it would be too late.

Herein lies a problem that the three of us talked about briefly. Since Megan now has her daughter Mckenna, she won't be able to hang out with us like she used to. The problem is that we mostly hang out late at night, and Mckenna has a bedtime.

I told Scott and Brian we should ask her if she wants to be invited to everything and just decline the invitation when she can't come, or have us not call her when she obviously can't hang out. Things are obviously going to change for Megan, but I think everything will turn out alright.
