I had a dream about an ex. My "first love" you might say. I haven't even seen/heard from her in a few years. We were Xmas shopping with my mom and then we watched some animated Disney show based on her. 
So my roommate and I thinking about having a Halloween party. There's this guy I know, sort of a friend, I guess. He's even more of a nerd than I am. Anyway, he had a cookout at the beginning of the summer and passed out flyers/invitations to everyone and basically said that no one except those he invited could come. No biggie. A few weeks...

corvinus:
He has no right to invite vast ammounts of people to a party
he is not hosting.
Why don't you suggest that it would be better to have the
Halloween party at his house?
Why don't you insist upon it...be as insistant as he has been
in imposing upon you?
I have lost so much time and energy out of not following my
instincts; instead I have established relationships with people out of a misplaced sense of social obligation...and been drained by it.
Every reason he gives not to have the party at his place, counter it with a reason not to give it at yours...
he will then stop bothering you, and then you can (discretly)
invite the people you like to your own party.
This is not your work life, this is your social life, you don't
have to make excuses for who you do/do not like. Just obey
your instincts.

For my cross-cultural class tonight, I had to read some stuff, namely this interview with Foucault about architecture and social interaction. There were a few statements that seemed universal and/or immediately applicable.
....there always remain the possibilities of resistance, disobedience, and oppositional groups.
Liberty is a practice... never assured by the institutions and laws that are intended to guarantee them.
There is in this hatred...
