Appreciation post: the day I stopped apologizing for not having a 'real job' at my 20 year reunion in 2019

I was standing by the punch bowl at the high school gym in Pittsburgh when my old classmate asked what I do and I said I'm a fiber artist and she laughed out loud so I just walked away and spent the rest of the night talking to the janitor about his vintage car collection instead.

So you walked away from one rude person at a snack table and spent the rest of the night talking cars with a cool janitor? Sounds like a pretty good night to me, honestly.

Oh man, I totally did that once and it ended up being the best part of the whole event.
