Explain, Please ...

Why is it, when I give people two freaking weeks to RSVP, they still fail to do it?

I'm coming down to the absolute wire with the kiddo's b-day party and still haven't heard from several people. At this rate, I'm going to have to send emails asking if they plan on coming. Which I hate doing. One, it makes me feel like I'm begging people to come to my kiddo's party. Two, I don't have email addresses for everyone we gave invitations to. Bleh. And double bleh.

I still have a day left. I guess, if I don't hear from anyone else today, I'll send out emails tomorrow. Well, to the people I can email, anyhow.

*grumbles*

Modern society has basically done away with manners and etiquette. Sad, but true.

Yes! I could not agree with you more. I guess it's kind of dumb or naive of me, but it really does make me sad.

One friend (who was on the "hadn't replied yet" list) was pregnant. And she had her baby a few days ago. So, I feel she has a good excuse. For the others ... pretty much no. (LOLz)

I did end up sending out the emails last night instead of today. I heard back from three or four of the people. I'm figuring that's pretty much it at this point. *sigh*

The way I see it, more cake for you and Aya LOL
But Brenda is right, ppl these days lack any common courtesy or manners. Its pretty disgusting and sad.

Hope your little girl's birthday was a blast nonetheless! ^_^

Ha! I totally agree. There is a sad lack of manners in the world these days. It never ceases to disappoint me, although I guess I should expect this by now.

On the very positive side of things, the b-day party was a huge success. Most of the kids who RSVP'd showed up, and everyone had a fantastic time. =D
