Feeling bad....

So, yesterday was my good friend's birthday... she turned 19. It was a Wednesday so she went to the only place in town that lets minors in, a place regulars affectionately call The Grill. Well, on Wednesdays The Grill offers "Wall to Wall Wednesdays" and lets way more people in than can possibly be allowed, so there is literally people wall to wall. Call me crazy, but I've never been one who enjoys rubbing up against total strangers... at all. So I wanted to go out because it was my friend's birthday... but I didn't want to go there. Also, I usually spend Wednesday nights at my favorite pub, singing horribly outdated songs with my friend who is also the kareoke host. I haven't been to the pub in weeks and I missed my usuals. So I told my friend, the birthday girl that I didn't feel good and wasn't going to the grill.
Now you ask why I just told you that incredibly boring story?? Because I feel absolutely horrible about blowing off my friend. But I just did NOT want to go...
I know it seems petty... and unimportant... but here's my question: When is it ok to just do what you wanna do without the constant guilt?
