I honestly hate the sacrifices I have to make sometimes when it comes to the ultimate achievement of fulfilling a Soma Day.345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQu9sDwwFih

A sit-on-my-ass day.345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25wQaRCl4Q

You know those kind days. Those days when you want to take a break from the world around you, the work you do during the week, and spend some time away from everybody, even your closest friends.345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqobosqhxOJ

For some of you, that's easier said than done.345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJWlPoNPox

For some strange reason, the universe has a damned mechanic that doesn't always agree with your social whims; Whenever you wanna hang out with friends, everyone's busy, whenever you wanna spend a whole day all by yourself, everyone starts ringing up your phone.345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpCLoG6upy

WHAT'S WITH THAT?!

And don't even get me started on what annoys me more; The one friend who calls you and asks you to do a bazillion things with them, or the other friend who ends up rambling on and on and on, forcing you to politely sit there and listen to them rant,, despite the fact you don't have the stones to tell them you have no desire to talk to them in the first place.345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogtnfTATBI

But the first kind of friend I listed can really mess with your morals. And worst of all, they're not even trying to manipulate you-They're just being a good friend!345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVIgG2RZRO

So this friend calls and they're asking you to come along with them...to the bowling alley, the movie theaters, the bar, the mall, or wherever. And upon hearing their invitation you immediately feel conflicted and have very little time to come up with a witty plan to eek your way out, usually leaving you with two choices as your available alternatives from telling them the blunt honest truth that you don't wanna be bothered.345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQpIOn5F7w
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6b7atePcvG
Choice 1: You tell a little white lie that you have your hands tied at the moment, ultimately bringing your friend's anticipated plans out of the question.345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIQsZtPtY9
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZF9dqz37O5
Choice 2: You reluctantly accept your friend's invitation to solely prove the fact you care about them and that you are not at all self-righteous
These plans...fall through in their own ways.
Now Choice 1, yes, your friend leaves you alone, allowing you to resume your Soma Day, but on the other hand, you feel bad for lying to them, even if the lie is as harmless and simplistic as, "Oh, sorry, man, I'm a little busy today, maybe next time."
But with Choice 2, you really screw yourself over.345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBj6v9KA7Bf
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4r1EBP3BXt
You force yourself to go along with your friend and their plans that can potentially last for hours, or even worse, THE WHOLE DAY! That can make every passing second as agonizing as possible, turning your mind into an empty shell with thoughts only concerning the yearned return to the safetiness and comfort of your own home.345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpLRI5M5KF

Now I'm not ranting all this aggravation out as a follow up to the valuable lesson to not make petty excuses to your friends...cause I still do it. I'm not proud of it, but I do it. But now that since I've shared this instance that you have most likely encountered at least once in your life, maybe you'll be prepared..with a couple alternatives up your sleeves than the average joe when faced with this dilemma...and if not..well...at least you got someone to sympathize with.
