Lawks. I'm 50 next week and, stupidly, earlier this year decided to have a party (venue, DJ, buffet, balloons and sparkly shit on the tables etc) the week after. AND it's musical theatre fancy dress themed.
And now I'm crapping it! Dreading it. In case it's rubbish, in case people don't turn up but mostly because I hate being the centre of attention. Which is a bit unbelievable if you knew me from a "distance" asitwere. I do a lot of amateur dramatics and singing. On stage, I just immerse myself but as soon as I'm off then my head's down and I'm scuttling away. To make matters worse, my theatre pals persuaded me to do a bit of a musical medley so we're rehearsing that. And it'll be fine I guess but adds to the panic.
I've got loads of help on the day so that's great but I just can't shake this dread
I'm also panicking about giving everyone enough time on the night, especially those coming from afar.
I'm overthinking aren't I? I have got a referral in to be assessed for autism/Aspergers as an aside.
No other major worries and I'm aware that this fits into the First World Problems category!
