I made a last-minute decision to attend Primerica's potluck this afternoon. Since I didn't give myself enough time to shop for ingredients for the crab-cake sandwiches, I bought a "party size" orange chicken and rice frozen dinner.

As much as I like being a "team player" at Primerica, I feel like I was pressured into attending the potluck. I know everyone there will be having fun (I'll certainly try.) Unfortunately, my social anxiety and anxiety around kids tend to get in the way of my happiness, which is why I try to avoid these situations. I definitely won't arrive early this time since I know where the house is located.

I left the potluck an hour early after I felt myself starting to panic.

From now on, if I don't feel like going to a company potluck/picnic/etc., I won't go. I refuse to be pressured. I don't plan on lying to anyone, except as a last resort.
