... I realised that I need to start inviting my friends to do stuff, as a hostess-type-thing, rather than asking to go along with their stuff, as a guest.
I finally tried making the plans myself for this weekend. It worked SO much better than.. anything else I've tried doing with them since December, when Amy moved away and we lost our after-school headquarters at her house.
It felt amazing. Being with people. Making jokes. Being immature.
I just.. I need to step up. I've stepped up from my old ways of being an under-the-radar hermit so many times in the past few years. I need to do it now, too.
Need to keep us together.
