Im 17 and my manager is in her mid 20's and shes super cool and we talk and laugh ect, so we have a pretty good relationship. She does with everyone I work with. She got pregnant a while ago and one person I work with decided to have a baby shower for her, for just the people at work. Will call this woman kate. So where I work theres only like 10 people who work there so we're all pretty close so I see why someone would do this. I close the store with Kate pretty often so shes one of the people I know really well. I got to work one day last week and kate told me about this baby shower and told me its on the 27th (a sunday). I said that works because sundays are my free days. 


Im a really busy person right now. Im in band and theres a lot of after school ensembles Im in. If you add up work, school, and band, Im busy for 68-70 hours a week. Everyday (except sunday) is a 9 or 12 hour day. Sundays are my "free days" but I still got work for 5 hours on sundays. Sundays are the days I get to relax. But I also do chores on sundays. I don't really have a lot of free time and its been like this since November and it'll finally be over in April. Then Ill just have school and work which will be like 50 hours. And if it was April Id be down for this baby shower but I look forward to my sundays where I get an extra hour of sleep and I get to play video games. 

The baby shower is at 1pm and I guess I could wake up at like 10 and get my chores done in like an hour. I gotta be back at work at 4:30 and I don't know when this baby shower is gonna be over.

Idk just Im just so busy right now and its super overwhelming, especially since I never did much of anything a year ago. I would just go to school and come home and play video games for 10 hours then play video games all weekend. Finding time right now is super difficult. But I think everyone at work is going to this and Id feel like an asshole being the only one not going

TL;DR lm really busy and dont have a lot of free time and I got invited to a baby shower that everyone I work with is gonna be at and I really just don't wanna go
