No, they're your friends and they want you to do well, and they're smart people, so they will have questions even if no one else does. Which is very unlikely.
I just think you're freakin' out 'cause you have to fight someone prettier than you.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

3/4 of my face is numb and will remain so for the near future. My facial nerves have been declared "wacky."
I'm still eeyore and would like to just get over it already.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I'll take heckling. Heckling would be okay, too.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I will come with a couple of questions. I promise I will ask them if it seems as if there will be silence WHICH WILL SO NOT HAPPEN.

I'm rather disbelieving this is even remotely possible unless you started out with "I really hate you all" and even then, it'd end up in hilarity and people not shutting up.

paperdol, I recommend bringing props. It always helps to wave something around like a wee Angel puppet man.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Yeah, because we're usually such a quiet bunch.
My babysitter can't make it Saturday, but I'm sure we can get my MiL to watch the kids. Otherwise they might come up to you during the reading and pet your hair and tell you you look just like a princess.

I have gift bags for everyone, so maybe that'll help?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Or a picture of Nilly.
