My Oh My how the tables have turned

Well, I was feeling a little depressed yesterday because: 1. I was really, really hungover after taking 12 shots at home with the hubs, and 2. Everyone seemed to be generally pissing me off. Let me explain, I work at a restaurant that my husband's family owns and he essentially grew up in. While working at said restaurant it is safe to say that I have become a member of the BBD family. Last year at this time I was very pregnant with Max, and I had been working there for 4 years non-stop. When we were sending out invitations to our baby shower, we of course included everyone from work on our mailing list. This turned out to be a HUGE mistake seeing how absolutely no-one that we worked with showed up or gave us a gift. Even though it's been a year, the wound felt very fresh yesterday when a fellow co-worker, who has returned from many years abroad, was having a shower with his wife for their 2nd child. Everyone at work was all abuzz yesterday about the party, they just couldn't wait to get off work to hurry and get a gift for the couple. Now don't get me wrong, I love this couple and I wish them nothing but the best, but it was very hurtful to hear the same people that snubbed us being so excited for someone that they don't even really know anymore. However, I'm feeling a little better today because low and behold, no one showed up to their party either! How ridiculous to act so excited to their face, and just not show up! I have decided that I will no longer have anything to do with the majority of these people either during or away from work.
