Heh. If there is a next party... I may not be invited anywhere after my reaction to last night. (sheepish grin)
You're right, there were others visibly trying to put on a happy face... I wasn't the only wallflower-not-by-choice there. And the whole restraining-order episode put a damper on the evening, IMO. My friend spent much of the evening comforting the person receiving the papers, and was crabby afterward. And the person hosting the event was sick and spent half the evening in seclusion, napping. Things just spiraled...
