A depressing scene

Options
Anyone here ever arrived late at a cocktail party and everyone else is pissed, meatballs are being eaten as appetizers, and the topic of conversation is "death"?

    Nope and it doesn't sound like much of a cocktail party - or even a good Irish wake for that matter! Hopefully you didn't have to stick around long or the atmosphere changed.:wink:

    I bolted after one drink.

    It wasn't just the crappy atmosphere; it was the fact that merely being around people who don't take care of themselves brings me down. Before I would have just reached for some more plonk and gotten pissed enough to enjoy myself. Now, I couldn't wait to get home and get a good night's sleep.

    It sound like you could use some new friends with a healthy, happy outlook on life!!!

    I agree with Mustang. It does sound like you have outgrown that group, and need people that are happier and healthier. :smile:
    Do not feel bad, I do not care where you are from it happens all over the world.
