Hi all,
I am really stressed about something. Later this month I am going to a fundraiser that a co-worker is having (his daughter died last year, he started a foundation in her name, and they are haivng a fundraiser).
No one in my department is going, so I was getting a ride to and from from a friend in another department who was going (in addition to social anxiety, I am legally blind, therefore I can't drive). It turns out that something came up and my friend can't go after all. Only a few people from my office are going and I really don;t know them well at all. So, that leads to all kind of stress about who am I going to sit with, who am I going ot talk to, etc.
I am going no matter what - I've known my o-worker over 20 years, and out of respect for him and his daughter's memory I will go, but right now I am getting very stressed.
Oh well, maybe after a few drinks I won't even feel anxious.
Thanks for listineing!
