Birthday, Ironic and Kids: What were the chances?

What were the chances?

By stpry of my life - 27/02/2009 22:58 - United States

Today, I was babysitting my 5 year-old niece, and she was really down in the dumps because she didn't get invited to a birthday party. To cheer her up, I took her to Chuck E Cheese. Right when we arrived, we walked in on a birthday party. It was the one that my niece got denied from. FML

Today, I drove my toddler to a schoolmate’s birthday party at a Chuck E. Cheese an hour drive away, only to find out the party is tomorrow. FML

Today, I found out I can't go to my best friend's birthday party. To cheer me up, my parents decided to take me and my brother to my favorite pizzeria for dinner. When I was ready and went downstairs, I discovered they left already. They forgot me. FML

Today, I babysat my neighbor's twin 4-year-old girls again. When I took them out for lunch, they apparently had been addressing themselves as "my bitches", taught to them by their devil spawn 13-year-old brother. Everyone, including Chuck E. Cheese himself, was not pleased. FML

Today, I was babysitting my niece when we decided to play hide and seek. I went in the shed, and waited. After waiting a while, I went to go back inside to see what was happening. I saw my niece had locked all the doors and was eating cookies on the kitchen bench. FML

Today, I got a call from a girl I know, asking if I could babysit her little brother at my house tonight. I said yes. When the boy came over, he mentioned that his sister was having a party and didn't want him there. Turns out all my friends were invited except me. FML

Exhaustion

Today, I was working at Chuck-E-Cheese. If that isn't enough, I was put in the mouse costume. Due to the disgusting hot smell and atmosphere in the costume, I fainted in front of a birthday party. I awoke to a little boy screaming who then kicked me in the face and ran. FML

Today, I met up with my dad for the first time in 7 years. We planned to go to a nice restaurant but he changed the place we were going to, to Chuck E. Cheese. I'm 18 years old. I waited an hour for him to show up. I then ended up babysitting his daughter the whole time. FML

Today, I was at my 3 year-old niece's birthday party. I was swinging on their swing set when she walked directly into my path. I tried to jump off the swing, but I could not stop myself in time. I ended up kicking her in the face and giving her a black eye. Happy birthday! FML

Hopefully it was more awkward for the people who didn't invite her. They probably felt bad seeing her there by herself.

#18 - because the OP took the niece to a birthday place on the same day/time as the event. I guess people who put "you deserved that" figured that the OP should have been more careful.

Little kids are pretty smart, I think. This little kid might understand if you explained that whether she got invited to a party or not has nothing to do with her worth as a person. She probably learned that she should value the friends who do want to include her, but that she doesn't have to hold a grudge against those who, for now, don't want to.

Sounds like we have a lot of Dr. Phils on here with all the sentiment. To make your niece feel really special and make up for the non-invite, you should have crashed that party. An important life lesson for her; two wrongs sometimes make a right.

you better have spent a shit load of money on tokens to get her a million tickets so she could get some kick ass prize and rub it those kindergarteners faces. haha.

girls are generally evil bitches when theyre little. theyll grow out of it, and the ones thatre nice from the start always end up on top.

you didn't know that it was at Chuckee Cheese? (no i havent voted) just wondering, seems like a massive coincidence. Sounds like you just didn't know, no one told you and you innocently took her there. in which case, sorry to hear.
