Maybe you should just quit out of YM and not have it start automatically?
Well, then that's not a shower, which is fine. I mean, there really isn't any other point to a shower except, let's see everyone's present, ooh. It's a "shower of gifts". Otherwise you should just say you want to have a nice brunch with your friends to celebrate the blessed event and they can bring shit if they want to. That's what my friend Sarah did instead of a bridal shower, actually, and it was nice. We still had silly games, like a quiz about Sarah that her sister made up, and we ate tea sandwiches and drank bellinis, so it was all the girlyness but no gifts. That might be more your speed. It's more mine; I don't really want to sit in a room and open boxes of lingerie and/or baby clothes, either.
How was the food? It's so funny, my reaction to these things always reveals my deep country roots.
Ghost World, nice. What is Endless Mike? Also, I have changed my LJ name.
