i cancel plans sometimes. not flaky-for-fun. body just says no.
i've had people take it personally even when i explain. looking for scripts that don't sound like i'm making excuses, and for partners/friends who've figured out pacing without making it weird.

people who get weird about it usually keep getting weird. the ones worth keeping adjust plans without a speech.

yeah. i think i've been over-explaining to people who weren't going to get it anyway
