Early morning texting results in miscommunication and wrong messages

Today is my very good childhood friend's birthday, August 13th, turning 18 woot. Anyway, so my cousin is off to college and usually we go to her birthday parties every single year together. However, my cousin isn't HERE this year for her birthday party thus leaving me all alone to make the decision of whether or not to go. Don't get me wrong, i love love love my childhood friend but when i saw all the invited people on facebook whom i had no association with, i got a little overwhelmed. I knew that when i got home from work that day i was going to be overly tired and i would not have the energy to do any thing whatsoever especially going to a party and mingle with people i dont know very well. 

Anyway, so i woke up today around 7 am, still woozy and sleepy and I just remembered that it was my friend's 18th birthday. But i also remembered my cousin wasn't here so i was contemplating whether or not I should go alone(cos well it just wouldn't be the same.) So i decided to text my cousin asking her whether I should go or not and I texted her this: Should i go to (my friend's) thing because i dont really want to without you TT.TT. So then, I clicked send. 5 minutes later, i was wondering whether I actually sent it to my cousin or not because the whole time i was thinking about my friend. I check my sent messages and turns out, I sent the goddamn message to my friend.

How. Embarrasing.

My stomach dropped. My face turned red and my neck was hot. I got so nervous because my friend is like the nicest person anyone could ever meet. She's like hella cool and I couldn't believe i just texted her I didn't feel like going to her party. I mean, if you really know me, I rarely ever am excited about anything really especially get togethers because I'm just so lazy, but I mean, she, her, NICENESS, embarrassment, uggh I just couldn't believe that happened to me. So, i was like should i make it into a huge joke? should i tell her the truth? should i ignore it? like whaat should i do??? I figured, i shouldnt make it into a joke because shes not dumb..at all and she wouldve known and it wouldve been extra awkward. So i jsut told her the truth. I just told her that I missed my cousin(cough cough) and I wished for her to be here with me. She texted me back and said like, "no probz im just glad your coming!"

Goddammit now I HAD to go.

I mean I kinda wanted to go but really, i was just fucking tired as hell. It happened to be a fucking sunny day too and I promised my baby cousins that when theres a sunny day, we'll go to the pool...and guess what, it was today. So i had work, hectic as hell, too many whiny and complaining kids. I go straight home afterwards, get my babies, load them in, and drove them all around to find a present. I found one finally at Macys(on sale) and we rush back to the school for the pool. We went in at exactly 4:30 and swam, ate free food and left immediately. I went home, complained to mother, changed and left.

Party:
The party actually was alright. The peoples were cool, some were a little awkward but overrall fun. we were just sitting around, talking. It was just a little difficult because they were all her friends from school so when they had convos bout school stuff I couldnt really talk about anything. Anyway, it was alright. Aside from the headache and the sleepy eyes, I had fun. I kept the present too because I forgot and I really wanted it. TEHE.
